Disk check question


I just upgraded my kernel and I have noticed that every 10 to 15 reboots it checks the disk. Is there something wrong? How many times does the disk need to be mounted to be checked? Maybe it's apm in the bios or acpci

ext3 file systems have a setting that forces an fsck on every Nth mount.

try looking at man tune2fs

PS -- by the way... there was no reason to post up your entire dmesg output

what is the default? How many reboots for the filesystem to be checked? I think in mine the kernel is maybe finding errors and forcing the check every X time. Can that be possible?
