: dumpe2fs --> says my Linux partitions (/dev/sda2 and /dev/sda3) are
: "not clean".
: I.E. --> Filesystem state: not clean
: on either partition (/dev/sda2=root and /dev/sda3=/usr) after login.
: During boot-up everything appears normal and Linux partitions are
: reported as "clean" so "no checking" is executed (perhaps I should
: force checking with boot parameters?).

This belongs in comp.os.linux.setup or so.
The answer is: nothing is wrong - don't worry - a mounted filesystem
is by definition not clean.
