e2fsck doesn't run after "maximal mount count reached" during boot?

[Terry Chan]

Ralph,

Boot your Lunar box with any version of the Lunar Install/Rescue ISO.  e2fsck
is of course included on the ISO.

After the ISO is booted, get to the point in the install process before
you have to mount partitions and just use the menu option to drop to
a shell prompt.  From there you can run "e2fsck /dev/dha2".
