Well, it allow a sysadmin to trigger a fsck at boot without having to change some boot loader setup, and in a way that make sure it only last for one boot. Thus, I believe it fill a real need and is not unnecessary. The fact that it only work when / is writable is not really unsafe, it is just a requirement that the sysadmin need to be aware of if / is mounted read only by default. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
