Yes, separate / and /home partitions, both ext3.
I don't get this reference, but I think I understand your position.
Code:
example:/home/user# dumpe2fs -h /dev/mapper/sample-root
.
.
Mount count: 4
Maximum mount count: 39
Last checked: Thu Mar 31 04:46:13 2011
Check interval: 15552000 (6 months)

I understand why my "mounted 47 times" would happen visa vis my "Maximum mount count": on battery power, forced checks are skipped.
Code:
example:/home/user# dumpe2fs -h /dev/mapper/sample-home
.
.
Mount count: 15
Maximum mount count: 23
Last checked: Thu Mar 24 03:46:15 2011
Check interval: 15552000 (6 months)

I'm guessing the difference in the "Maximum mount count" would be due to the idea that a root partition would need less frequent checking vs. a /home partition.
Anyway, if anyone has ideas for an explanation as to why fsck claims that I have booted 47 times when I
know it was far less than that, I'd really appreciate it!
