To answer the question: tune2fs (remember, it's really just an ext2 filesystem, with a journal). "-C mount-count Set the number of times the filesystem has been mounted. If set to a greater value than the max-mount-counts parameter set by the -c option, e2fsck(8) will check the filesystem at the next reboot. " If you used: tune2fs -C 99999 /dev/XXXX where XXXX is your partition, I would expect it to be fsck'd next boot. </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
