ext3 and fsck
« on: August 25, 2003, 09:42:21 PM »
Are "fsck" autochecks required when the system boots back up and prompts me to "Press Y within 5 seconds to force file system integrity check"?

It appears that ext3's journaling properties can handle the recovery automatically, so should I change the options in "/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit" to AUTOFSCK_DEF_CHECK (default option) to "yes" instead of the current "no"?

It is not clear what I am suppose to do.
