I've been plague by scandisk at every startup. Scandisk at
startup takes 3 hours to scan 120G. After finishing
scandisk, I shutdown and restart and scandisk runs again. I
like to disable this feature so I don't have to stay around to
press "skip scandisk" at every bootup. How do I disable
this feature?

Thanks
