I just tried Control-C during a regularly scheduled fsck on my system and it stopped the fsck and booted normally, so that should have worked for you.

And if fsck couldn't be stopped by Ctrl-C this would be an upstream issue and has nothing to do with Arch's initscripts anyway. The only thing /etc/rc.sysinit does is to call fsck. Btw., as far as I know it's not necessary to set fs_passno to >0 for journalling file systems because they have such a feature included so that they detect if a file system wasn't cleanly unmounted and fix it by themselves. At least I hadn't had any problems with ext3 and fs_passno=0 yet. Greetings, Heiko
