Re: [gentoo-user] fsck won't work if ac cord not attached?!

[Maxim Wexler]

besides the problem has to do with the power cord and/or the battery
-- not the fs. I'm sending this from the netbook in question with the
power cord attached; if I was on battery power it wouldn't work. Look
in your /etc/init.d/fsck, you'll see the warning.

There ought to be some boolean thing I can put in /etc/conf.d/fsck to
over-ride it, but apparently not.
