Couldn't get a free page.....



I don't think it's debian specific and really a big problem...just
curious. Sometimes when booting I get this message just after the swap
partitions are initialized, so it must be when fsck is running.

The booting process goes ok to the end and the system is stable. It seems
to occur only when I have a forced filesystem check. So just after loggin
in here is the output of free:

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:         31164      30044       1120       4884      20096       3808
-/+ buffers:             6140      25024
Swap:        64472         24      64448                 

Am I correct in saying that fsck need some space to write God knows what
and since the disks are read-only it uses ram?
