Title:
  grub menu entry FSCK does not work

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  after a fresh install of Xubuntu 18.04.02 I tried "Ubuntu, mit Linux 4.15.0-51-generic (recovery mode)"
  and as a result got:

  /lib/recocery-mode/recovery-menu: line 80: /etc/default/rcS: No such file or directory
  fsck from util-linux 2.31.1
  /dev/sda4 is mounted
  e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.

  I check both the live DVD and the installed filesystem and found
  /etc/default/rcS to be missing.

  I copied it over from an old Xubuntu live DVD (it contains commented
  out lines only) and now the error message is still:

  fsck from util-linux 2.31.1
  /dev/sda4 is mounted
  e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.

  This shouldn't happen on a newly installed system. I am a newbie to
  Ubuntu and when my laptop has trouble when I'm on he road basics like
  that should IMHO work as I won't have the ability to look for
  workarounds and wouldn't want to boot into a possibly corrupted
  filesystem.
