You could use it if /var/lib/locate/locatedb exists, and fall back to "find", otherwise. No, forget about that. The point of the code is to inform the admin of droppings that fsck left in lost+found. Since automatic fsck will only do filesystems mentioned in /etc/fstab, it is enough to parse that file. > I'm considering filing a bug against the cron package. Would that be > appropriate? Parsing /etc/fstab could be argued to be more correct for Linux, too, as it skips filesystems that are not automatically checked, but mounted at the moment. OTOH, modifying df to (somewhat) work without parameters would be fine, too. Defaulting to output just those partitions mentioned in /etc/fstab would suffice, IMHO. That would fix the cron script, too. -- Robbe
