[Jfs-discussion] fsck at boot time on a mounted partition ?

[Wolfgang <wol...@wk...>]

Using SuSE 2.4.4-4GB kernel sources patched to jfs-1.0.3

Hello,

I got the following at boot time:

---- cut -------------------

/dev/sda8 is mounted.

WARNING!!!

may cause SEVERE file system damage.

Do you really want to continue (y/n)? yes


The current device is:  /dev/sda8
Block size in bytes:  4096
File system size in blocks:  4012225

---- cut -------------------

Again i feel unsave about the fsck WARNING !

Why does fsck running after mounting /dev/sda8 ?
Will this the expected behavior ?
