Hi Phil,

Sounds good. I my self have seen fsck get automatically activated, and
wondered why and how does it happen. I would like to
work on this. So how do you want me to do it? I can write up a description
and send it to you, and if you like it you can tell me
how to go about converting it into a format that suits the Ubuntu
documenting system. If there is some other standard procedures
then and let me know, and I will get started.

Regards,
Pranab.
