Comment:
It turns out that /etc/rc.sysinit deletes /fsckoptions after using it, so
the file has to be rewritten each time. This is done by the no-fsck-
options init script, which is run by default. The script does nothing but
write to /fsckoptions and exit.
It is available in xs-config-0.4.3.18.gc9ce811-1.noarch.rpm
It is hard to be certain that it has made a difference, as fsck rarely
asks a question these days, and I am not sure how to break the filesystem
in just the right way that it would otherwise ask. But, at least, under
testing (and logically) fsck is no more likely to freeze than before.
