Tony, I think you are seriously understating the deal with ext3.

The reason there are no file system checks isn't as simple as the case for hijack, where they're just turned off.

There actually are file system checks with ext3, they just happen a lot faster because
it's a journaling file system and it's much harder to get it into a state where there is real
corruption. It's a much more robust solution.

I realize you probably know this stuff, but I don't know if everyone does.

Anyway, if indeed everything you need is built into the latest hijack (I haven't checked
myself), you just need to:

1) run tune2fs -j on the partitions
2) make sure they are mounted as ext3 -- it's been awhile since I poked around on the player, so I can't remember if there is an fstab to tweak in this regard.

As someone else stated, it may be tricky to get the root partition mounted ext3, I am not really sure.

I should think Mark would chime in, being the file system stud he is :-)

Cheers,
