The second value is used by fsck to determine the order of which filesystems get checked at boot time.<BR /><BR /><BR />JP<BR /> Thu, 20 May 2004 12:57:39 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/question-about-the-entry-in-etc-fstab/m-p/3282384#M12254 John Poff 2004-05-20T12:57:39Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/question-about-the-entry-in-etc-fstab/m-p/3282385#M12255 thanks !
