The /etc/rc boot script calls fsck -p; if that fails, it means fsck -p was unable to fix a major problem. It is the point that it requires an admin's intervention. You would have to change the fsck call to fsck -y; but don't do that. (Also, don't let a server have power outages, obviously.) > This is because I use a small server without screen and keyboard.
