[Voyage-linux] Root partition corrupt

[Jordi Soucheiron]

Sure I can, the problem is that the system must be standalone. I need
to make it fsck without human help.
To make it work I've changed /etc/fstab (uncommenting the / line) and
changed /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh changing checkroot=no to
checkroot=yes. Now everything works without human help.
Thank you all :)

PD:If somebody knows of a nicer way to accomplish this please let us know
