Like in many packages, you can say
./configure PREFIX=~/bin
you'll install the package locally and don't need to be superuser. Are
there any plans to integrate this functionality with synaptic/Add-Remove
for non-sudoers, or am I missing something?

When ext3 was new, I am pretty certain that I have read quotes by
Theodore T'so that he does not recommend turning off the checks. It's

I've spent a lot of time looking for the reasoning behind still doing the
checks, all I've found is anecdotal evidence, some people say they have
first hand experience of errors creeping in, which were then fixed by fsck.

Hi,
I'm new to this list, I joined it because I saw in the archive that
recently you were discussing the problem with running fsck on boot as a
'just in case' filesystem check. I joined the list because I'm the author
of AutoFsck, the script you discussed which effectively moves fsck to
