SYNOPSIS
fastboot |
[boot-options] |
fasthalt |
[halt-options] |
DESCRIPTION
fastboot and fasthalt are shell
scripts which reboot or halt the system, and when next started, the system
will skip the normal the file systems checks. This is done by creating a file
/fastboot, then invoking the
reboot(8) program. The system startup script,
/etc/rc, looks for this file and, if present, skips
the normal invocation of
fsck(8).
