So what you're saying is that with `-a' fsck is not as good as with
`-n', at least for ext file system? I don't use ext{2,3} and I don't
remember being in a situation where I actually needed fsck to run with
any other settings except default, even after power outage or forced
power-off to restart a frozen machine. I'd vote for SOFTFIX=yes being a
default.
Thanks!
Sergey.
