Re: Background fsck causes kernel panic



On Tue, Dec 26, 2006 at 10:47:25PM -0500 I heard the voice of
Kris Kennaway, and lo! it spake thus:

As you discovered, the solution is to force a fsck to repair all
corruption and then proceed (optionally disabling bg fsck
permanently to prevent a recurrence ;-)

Is it time yet to have another roundabout over whether that should be
the default?
