Hello list, I recently had to get rid of the boot splashscreen on my home server. Meaning that I now get to see the console boot messages each time, and I noticed something quite alarming: an fsck and a transaction log replay takes place each time the server boots, even though I take great care to always shut it down cleanly. Watching the console during shutdown or browsing the logs, I couldn't find anything indicating failure. My guess, at this stage, is that the script that should unmount the filesystems (/etc/init.d/boot.localfs) is either never called or no doing anything for some reason. Peter Nikolic already reported a similar behaviour on this list a few months ago, and filed a bug about it: <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626580> Peter experienced this problem on 11.3 (and for a single filesystem). I'm seeing this on 11.2, and for all the filesystems on the server. We're both using reiser on at least some of our filesystems (is there a link ?). If anyone else has had the same problem, could they please feed more information into the above bug ? Or provide a solution if they have one ? TIA Cheers. Bye. Ph.
