That would work to reboot the machine immediately but not to complete the fsck on reboot. Maybe you have to specify the options the other way round ie -Fr now as opposed to -rF or even -F -r now? I mean this is an option on the shutdown man page so therefore its gotta work. IT would be a nice thing to force the fsck on reboot but perhaps you are going to need to do it the hard way ie boot off the CD, and do the fsck before any of the drives are mounted? -- The Little Helper ======================================================================== Hylton Conacher - Licenced ex-Windows user (apart from Quicken) Registered Linux user # 229959 at http://counter.li.org Currently using SuSE 9.0 Professional with KDE 3.1 ========================================================================
