Hi,
are you using the "quiet" parameter in GRUBs "kernel" line? This is what caused fsck to be silent in my case.
The problem is that I don't wan't the extremely verbose kerneloutputs when not using "quiet". Besides, it also slows down booting since writing so much text into framebuffer isn't fast at all.
So if there was a way to have both, the "quiet" parameter and a fsck progressbar that would be very neat.

I was looking into the initscripts git history and found the commit for that change made in 12/12/2005: http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=initscripts.git;a=blob;f=rc.sysinit;hb=675e... There is no information of bugreport or feature request about it, so should it be sane to open a feature request to remove this behaviour? Would anyone disagree? -- ------------------------------------------- Denis A.
