I have a server (woody) that is rarely restarted, but when it is a disk check is preformed that can take as log as 20 minutes. I believe it is running fsck at boot up before mounting the partitions and when it gets to /var (92GB) and /opt (92GB) it take it a while to complete each. So I have 2 questions.

1. Is it actually running fsck

2. is there an online way to perform these checks so that it takes less time to restart when required.
