bcheckrc(8)
NAME
  bcheckrc - Command script for checking and mounting local file systems

SYNOPSIS
  /sbin/bcheckrc

DESCRIPTION
  The bcheckrc script controls the checking and mounting of local file
  systems during system startup.

  An entry in the inittab file causes the system to execute the bcheckrc run
  commands, for example:

       fs:23:wait:/sbin/bcheckrc < /dev/console > /dev/console 2>&1

  The bcheckrc script performs the following operations:

    ·  Checks the local file systems listed in /etc/fstab for consistency

    ·  Runs fsck with the -p option to preen all disks of minor
       inconsistencies resulting from the last system shutdown and to check
       for serious inconsistencies caused by hardware or software failure.

    ·  Changes the root file system from read-only to read-write

    ·  Mounts local file systems listed in /etc/fstab

FILES
  /sbin/bcheckrc
      Specifies the command path.
