Checking the file system every 22 boots

OS: Ubuntu 7.10 x86.


Why does Ubuntu run a full file system ext3 check every 22 times? ext3
is considered robust. Is the default mode of ext3 under Ubuntu 7.10
other than "ordered mode"? Is there any way to disable this unnecessary
forced file system check?


Thanks,

Ioannis (John)
