Forced fsck on boot

Hi. The other day, I did a 'shutdown -F -r 0', which worked as expected and made a forced fsck after booting. However, the file /forcefsck wasn't removed afterwards so the last time I booted, another fsck was forced, which was of course a little bit inconvenient. I'm running SuSE Linux 7.2 professional, but I believe 7.1 had the same behaviour. Is this behaviour intentional? Otherwise, it would be very nice to have it fixed in the next release. If it is indeed intentional, what is the reason? Thanks in advance. -- Best regards Christian Laursen
