Eric,
You can turn on Journaling on your startup disk, this will cause the
system to bypass the fsck and allow you to have faster re-boot. I
believe the command is
(as root) diskutil enableJournal /dev/xxxx where xxxx is your device
for the root drive. You may wish to check on google to be sure about
that command, it's been a while since I turned it on. Your reboots will
be much faster (After a crash) with journalling turned on, and your
filesystem will be less likely to suffer catastrophic damage.
-Hope that helps,
Brian Tabone

can do. If the third party kext isn't loaded, no panic occurs. The
panic
is happening because the third party kext is actually calling panic().
While screwing with this I've had to do lots of rebooting. I'm using a
laptop that's a couple of years old. I don't want to install the third
party
software on my desktop Mac. Rebooting takes forever and a day on
Jaguar
because of the disk verification check.
Is there anyway to skip this check? Is it too risky to bypass?
Thanks,
Eric
