rootfs fsck check - too early?

[Adam Gołębiowski]

Hi,

in rc.sysint (rev 8223, may differ in your case) near line 300, we are
doing a fsck for rootfs:

        if [ -z "$fastboot" -a "$_ROOTFS_TYPE" != "nfs" -a "$_ROOTFS_TYPE" != "romfs" -a "$_ROOTFS_PASSNO" != 0 ]; then
                show "Checking root filesystem"; started
                initlog -c "fsck -C -T -a $fsckoptions /"


Isn't it too early? Akcyza - with rootfs on lvm built on top of soft
raid5 - was down for a few hours today after power failure, and the
bootup process stoped on the abovementioned fsck due to reiserfsck
complaining about missing /dev/sys/rootfs device. 

We are assembling soft raid a little bit later (line 550). Shouldn't we
move fsck there? 

If not, do you have any ideas why it did not boot?

Adam
