Topic: Shutdown doesn't cleanly unmount the filesystems

[Bernd]

Hi, just installed 5.5 (need to run FileMaker server and I've learned that it runs on SME 5.5 - anyone knows if it runs 5.6 or even 6.0 as well?) and everything is fine except that when I shutdown the system (either by being connected via SSH from my desktop and sending a "shutdown -h now" or being connected via SSH as admin and using the console menu to shutdown) the file systems don't seem to be cleanly unmounted. When I reboot the system it takes ages to be ready (I run it headless) and the log files show me this

Nov 16 20:21:40 mrbrown fsck:  was not cleanly unmounted, check forced.
Nov 16 20:21:40 mrbrown fsck: /: |

Anyone got an idea where to look - or what to look for?

Thanks,
Bernd

maybe your filesystem is damaged.
try to run the fsck by hand.
type "man fsck" to learn the options.
