reassign 805348 systemd thanks On Tue, Nov 17, 2015 at 08:21:56AM +0100, Thomas Schmidt wrote: > * What outcome did you expect instead? > > systemd should be waiting until fsck finishes
How long systemd waits for fsck to finish is up to systemd. It's not up to e2fsprogs. A smart thing to do would be to be able to mark a file system as being "optional" (e.g., it doesn't matter when the user's video or music archive is available, so the check should continue in the background and then the file system mounted when it is done). But that would be a systemd feature request. The bare minimum is that for a critical (but large) file system which takes a long time in checking, such as if the user configures a multi-terabyte /home or /var/www partition or some such, is for the system to give up until the system is fully completely checked. But that would be up to systemd-fstab-generator(8) to do the right thing, in either case. - Ted
