FASTBOOT(8)  —  System Manager’s Manual — Maintenance Commands

NAME

fastboot − reboot the system without checking the disks

SYNOPSIS

/etc/fastboot [ reboot-options ]

DESCRIPTION

Fastboot is a shell script which reboots the system without checking the file systems.  This is done by creating a file /fastboot, then invoking the reboot program.  The system startup script, /etc/rc, looks for this file and, if present, skips the normal invocation of fsck(8).
