I believe (please someone shoot me down) that these types of errors are |
| 8 |
indicative of some on disk corruption - not sure why it refers to NFS |

though. |

So I think you have the big problem here that the fsck adds a good chunk |
| 12 |
to the boot time, but disabling it leads to silent corruption and |
| 13 |
potentially big problems down the line... One compromise would perhaps |
| 14 |
be to split the device to read-only and read-write (which I think you |
| 15 |
may have done?) and this then perhaps allows you to split the disk into |
| 16 |
high risk and safe data... Now you can play roulette with less important |
| 17 |
stuff and use ext3, etc with the more important stuff? |

Just an idea |

Good luck |
