I have an interesting use case where a Debian Lenny server runs headless, and 
is at the mercy of poor power conditions (environmental monitoring at a remote 
storage building). We used to have issues with the server not coming up after 
several reboots, but we gave it a bandaid by forcing an fsck on every boot 
(tune2fs...) to correct any issues. This is fine, and has done wonders for disk 
errors.

However...

On occasion, we find that a filesystem error is bad enough that instead of 
auto{matically|magically} fixing the issue and continuing to boot, the system 
hangs, needing a root password entered for a manual fsck to be run.

My question is thus: How do I prevent that requirement to login and run fsck 
manually? Is there some parameter that can be set? Or, am I going about this 
the completely wrong way?

Thoughts? Thanks!
