How to Enable or Disable File System Check (FSCK) on System booting

We have already discussed about it on this post describes about enable or disable fsck on system booting time, here’s several ways of accomplishing with below steps,

Use Grub boot parameter:

fastboot

You need to  edit grub boot configuration file and placing command files on your root device at end of the line . For example just see the following lines,

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-238.el5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet fastboot

Another option is use /etc/fstab, 0 to disable fsck checking at sixth field.

Open the /etc/fstab and check the line end of the mount point option the values to 0.
