Ext3 users - May 2002 - fsck forced on every system crash

Hi all, I seem to be having a problem whereby my ext3 filesystem forces a full
fsck on every hard system crash.  This takes over 20 minutes on my 40GB drive
and is driving me nuts.  I've verified that the partition is, in fact, being
mounted as ext3 and have tried removing ^has_journal and re-creating the journal
file but nothing has worked.  I'm running RH7.2...  Any ideas would be much
appreciated.

How did you confirm this?  Via "mount" output, or via "cat
/proc/mounts"?
When e2fsck is run, what reason does it give for running?
