9/26    I have set some local filesystems not to mount at boot in vfstab
        When I do go to mount them, though, i'd like to go through the whole
        fsck pass like it would if it was set up to do so at boot.  What is
        the_standard/an_easy way to do this?  tnx.
        \_ Make up an alias that basically does "fsck -p /foo && mount /foo"
           \_ I may resort to this (except not -p because slowlaris doesn't
              have that option on it's fsck) but the regular boot up process
              - if i'm not mistaken - only does this if it detects that the
                filesystem is "dirty" right?  or it has been X mounts or Y
                days since last FSCKing. Is there no way to just do exactly
                what it would have done at boot time?
           \- i think some OSes have an option to say "fsck every N mounts".
              not sure about solaris [which is what i assume you have].
