No need to fsck has become apparent, and certainly not for all possible mounts for every boot regardless of what was booted last.
Partitions existing number at least 30 on the two systems I'm currently aware of having this trouble. All natives on the two systems I'm currently aware of having this trouble are swap, ext2 or ext3. FAT, NTFS and/or HPFS partitions are present on both systems.
Have you thought about trying a file system that doesn't need an fsck step? I.e. if it is pausing in the fsck step now, but you tried booting from a partition that didn't need an fsck step, you could disable that step and see if skipping it entirely would speed up your boot. Perhaps it isn't the fsck step at all, but perhaps output is being buffered somewhere and the problem is in one of the steps immediately after the fsck, but isn't getting written to the log or console? Anyway, if fsck seems to be part of the problem -- then boot from a file system which doesn't need an fsck step. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
