I maintain some remote systems that I don't want running a full file system
check at inopportune times, but I do make certain that I force a check and
examine the results on a regular basis. Anyway, that's why I don't simply
modify grub behavior to include "fsck.mode=force" on these systems.
According to shutdown(8)
...
-f Skip fsck on reboot.
-F Force fsck on reboot.

Those options are indeed available in the case of the wheezy version of
/sbin/shutdown, which belongs to the sysvinit package. The OP appears to
be running jessie (given that he upgraded initramfs-tools this morning),
where that same command belongs to the systemd-sysv package, and does
not offer the -[fF] options.
Yup, sorry that I didn't include more information. I do appreciate the
thought, though, Elimar.
And thanks, Liam, for explaining to the list what I should have
explained in my original post.
So — does anyone have an idea for me?
Since this does represent a change in expected behavior (even though
it's sort of a corner case), should I file a bug report? (I'm guessing
that the maintainers of initramfs-tools probably wouldn't appreciate
that, and I suppose I wouldn't blame them.)
But I will whine a little if there's no easy workaround.
;-)
Best,
JP
