Topic: dev sda1 check forced

Every time i boot i have to go threw a disc check.
It was fine before i dual booted with Joliecloud .
It boots Jolie with no issues,But when i go to #! it says this.

dev sda1 was not cleanly unmounted check forced

I updated grub,But still same issue.
I went into etc/fstab , But im not to sure what im looking at.

Any ideas will be appreciated.

Re: dev sda1 check forced

tune2fs -c will let you set how often a partition is checked, it sounds like this setting may have been altered.

Re: dev sda1 check forced

I solved it the long and very beginner way,Reading on other forum that it was a grub issue,I tried editing the grub files,plus the boot order,   Well lets just say i lost it all ,  lol

I did a fresh install of Jolicloud and then installed Statler,And now i have a working dual boot without any check disc issues.

Ive learned this,Grub 2 isnt as easy as grub 1.
