From /etc/conf.d/fsck, seems like a reason to keep the / FS as small as possible to reduce the amount of time spent waiting during boot: # fsck_shutdown causes fsck to trigger during shutdown as well as startup. # The end result of this is that if any periodic non-root filesystem checks are # scheduled, under normal circumstances the actual check will happen during # shutdown rather than at next boot. # This is useful when periodic filesystem checks are causing undesirable # delays at startup, but such delays at shutdown are acceptable. fsck_shutdown="YES"
