The point of the mountall2 script was to introduce the idea of a more intelligent booting process, with pre and post mount hooks and the ability to check the progress of the FSCK remotely. I shied away from using the nobootwait option because I needed a postmount script to restart some services on

2010-10-12 Thread Gerald Villemure
