Probably your whole 10 YRS of working on FreeBSD was on a P-II or AMD K6 
running a workstation in your basement, or who knows where.

I contribute to this group and many other places as much as I can with my 
experience and if you should check the archives you'll find my name pop-up 
there many times. I also do other types of contributions to the FreeBSD 
foundation and other organizations that utilize FreeBSD.

I didn't complain about the system reboots (did I?), there is definitely a 
problem with the system rebooting, but that is my job to resolve it (whether 
being hardware or FreeBSD itself) and YES FreeBSD does have its issues *BIG 
TIME* too. 

My post was regarding the whole concept of doing background fsck or foreground 
fsck if they both cause the machine not to be usable for the duration of the 
fsck.

I do appreciate a lot of people who take the time to address questions on these 
mailings and the many more who post to various forums and message boards.

However, I don't appreciate sarcasm and useless remarks especially if they were 
not intended to be humorous anyway.

Anyhow thanks for the help and great support !

Tamouh
