[MiNT] ext2 as root filesystem

[Martin-Eric Racine <q-funk@pp.fishpool.fi>]

Hello Frank,

Now that I have successfully transformed my root filesystem into 
an Extended-2 filesystem, I run into one problem:  e2fsck cannot
check the partition, because it is locked while I am using it.

Isn't there any way to run fsck on an ext2 partition that is used
as root partition, at least during the bootup check?

Doesn't Linux have a way to access its root partition for e2fsck
to check it, at bootup, and then make it locked again?

Thanks.

PS:  just as a precision, what I mean by root filesystem is the
     one where /etc /bin /sbin reside, the one where bootup stuff
     is found and where I run fsck from.
