You keep stating things that you believe to be true without doing any checking of them.

You apparently have never done an upgrade or don't remember what it did when you last did so. Amit is correct that doing an upgrade from 4.3 or 4.4 or 4.5 would have, by default, done a forced fsck of your filesystems. If you're interested in bringing your beliefs closer to reality, then I suggest you go pick up a copy of 4.4 or 4.5 and try the upgrade, or read the source for the upgrade script. Philip Guenther
