The subject says it.
I found out that if I pull the plug on my linux box
without doing shutdown first, the subsequent
fsck -a upon bootup does not run the
fs check, as it used to with earlier kernels
but instead reports the filesystem has
been "unmounted cleanly,skipping check".
I run linux on commemorative issue of i486 EISA/VLB
with Ultrastor-34 SCSI.
