I need to run fsck every time the system dies unexpectedly (which is
a higher occurrence on a laptop)? GJournal helps in that it takes
care of that. The growing size of drives is another concern given the
time it takes to check a 500G disk (my smallest atm), although this
is way down on the list for the moment.
SUJ speeds up the check a lot, seconds as opposed to minutes. If
something happens to the journal, it falls back to a standard fsck.
But fsck needs to be run manually- I have users that can't do that, and
the filesystem corrupts. Ergo gjournal; it boots up and fixes on the
fly. So SU+J needs a manual fsck before booting proper or can it just
boot and be done?
