That's because signals aren't delivered from the initial console by default, and the program
which fixes that (getty) doesn't run until a long time after fsck runs.

So, how does one stop it?

I suppose the right time to run the automatic fsck is when the volume is being unmounted at
shutdown.  I don't mind at all if the computer wants to chug along happily for 20 minutes and
then power itself off.  I sure as heck mind if it happens at startup and prevents me from
using the computer for 1/2 hour in the morning!

Any thoughts?  Should I file an Ubuntu feature request?

Hmmm... does putting an "stty sane" early in the boot scripts make it work?
