Hi Chris,

[snapped]

The fsck'ing has been moved into initrd. There's some information in 
this discussion.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1619753

If the filesystem is clean, it shouldn't take much time. If it did take 
a long time, fsck is thinking there's sth wrong with the root filesystem 
and tries to repair it.

If you want the behaviour to change, for example, echoing a message, 
maybe you want to file a bug report against the initramfs-tools package.
