There is no mention of the OP or of his experience in anything quoted
above. My comment was in the context of making one choice out of two
from a GRUB menu. In the case of aborting a fsck there is no choice
available from the menu. I do not know how you can correctly claim I
have said anything was his fault.
As a general point, you appear to believe that the consequences
resulting from making a choice from two GRUB entries lies with other
than the user. If that is so, we will just have to agree to disagree.
