RedHat 7.2 and 7.3 have an interesting feature on boot: e2fsck can exit with 2 in some circumstances, causing /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit to drop to a shell prompt. Well, 2 means "filesystems modified successfully" (no problem there, that's the same as an exit value of 1) "system should be rebooted if filesystem was mounted" (it wasn't). Since the server which consistently trips on this is one I can't play with, I can't really experiment with it much, but surely someone out there in cluster land has experienced this problem? The apparent fix is to change the test to be > 2 instead of > 1. But, I'd think RedHat should have noticed by now... greg
