Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: usplash
The forced disk check after every 20 mounts is a problem in itself. I suffered
on many occasions because of this.
It often happens that I have very little time, and have to do something (like
some urgent data transfer to thumb drive) . I got delayed by atleast 20
minutes( my hard disk is 250 GB). This can happen to anybody.
Although the frequency for this forced disk check can be changed, ( Let's say
we change it to 60 times, ) but the problem is far from resolved. What is
required is a simple yes/no option( to do it next time). Something Like this:
" /dev/sda1 has been mounted 30 times, Disk Check Imperative. Press any key to
postpone disk check and continue booting , in 10 seconds......."
(put in a countdown timer).
What difference does it make if a postpone option is put??????
Even MS Windows (a closed source OS) has the option to skip the disk check
until next reboot.
Why is Ubuntu( Open Source) lagging behind?
