[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#394657: initscripts: Option for an fsck no matter whether the machine is on AC or battery

[Wolfgang Pfeiffer]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.86.ds1-33
Severity: wishlist


Hi

IINM: after a system crash - when rebooting the machine - an fsck is
crucial for the sanity of some filesystem and the data on it.

But currently a check is skipped in such a situation, if the system
thinks the machine is running on battery.

So I'd suggest an option to force the usual fsck no matter whether the
machine is running on AC or battery -- perhaps via some setting in
/etc/default/.

If there already is some way to easily disable the fsck skip,
please let me know: At least until now I didn't find it.

Thanks in anticipation.

Best Regards
Wolfgang
