[TriLUG] fsck script?

[Maarten Lippmann]

next time this happens, press escape  (stops it and continues booting)
and run fsck manually as you said.
That fixes it.

theres also a config file or thing you can run to disable the counter.
let me look up what that was.

"Is 't noodlot, dat ick vall', van eere en staet berooft,
Laet vallen, als ick vall', met deze kroone op 't hooft,
Dien scepter in de vuist, dien eersleip van vertrouden,
En zoo veel duizenden als onze zyde houden.
Dat valle streckt tot eer, en onverwelckbren lof:
En liever d' eerste Vorst in eenigh laeger hof,
Dan in 't gezalight licht de tweede, of noch een minder
Zoo troost ick my de kans, en vrees nu leet noch hinder."
