Well, I've done some more digging on this problem and, though I have found out some things, I am still no closer to solving the problem than before.
1) The huge amount of lines in /var/log/messages seems to be unrelated to why I'm getting an fsck every time I boot. There are hundreds of lines in there that look like this one --
Linux kernel: SFW2-IN-ACC-RELATED IN eth0 OUT=MAC=00:08:74:24:85:82:00:04:5A:0f:18:07:08:00 SRC=128.61.111.11 DST=192.168.1.102 LEN=529 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=238936 WINDOW=1716 RES=0x00 ACK FIN URGP=0 OPT (long hex number here)
The DST address is my machine's internal address. I checked several of the SRC addresses and they seemed to all be ZEN/YOU mirrors. So, this would appear to be some ZEN glitch (if so, what's new). I wouldn't think this would have anything to do with my getting the fscks every time I boot.
2) When I finally scrolled back across thousands of lines of the above and got to the beginning of the startup process, there were no messages that indicated any type of problem, disk related or otherwise.
3) I tried "tune2fs -c 99 /dev/hda2" and it came back and said "Setting maximal mount count to 99". However, I still get an fsck every time I boot up.
So, at this point I'm stumped. There doesn't seem to be any error message coming out and yet it just automatically does an fsck every time I boot. I'm going to look at some of the other files in /var/log to see if I can find one with some sort of message in it that would point me to why this is happening. Don't know what else to do at this point.

I just noticed the following lines ahead of the fsck in the log -- Invoking userspace resume from /dev/hda1 resume: Could not stat configuration file resume: libgcrypt version: 1.2.3 resume: Could not read the image Invoking in-kernel resume from /dev/hda1 <-- swap Waiting for device /dev/hda2 to appear ok fsck... Could the fact that it's trying to do a resume and is unable to be the cause of the problem? I really don't need resume from disk anyway. How can I turn that off? I'll start looking for that setting under /etc/sysconfig Editor. Greg W -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
