Re: Schedule a disk check

(yeah I'm top posting)
Oddly enough my 9.04 laptop install checks the Linux file systems each
boot, even when I shut it down correctly, so it's not really a waste of
time, it's just wasting time doing it each boot.

Subject: Schedule a disk check

In windows, if I right click a drive, go to properties and tell it to do a
disk check, it will tell me it can't disk check an active hard drive. Then it
asks me if I'd like to schedule a disk check the next time Windows boots. How
can I do the same with Ubuntu?
