Hi Connie,

    I don't know the exact number, I think it is 27 reboots,
your boot will automatically drop to an FSCK.  In RHEL5,
your would see a status bar showing you progress.  In 6,
you get no indication that an FSCK is happening and you
think you are frozen.  The temptation to throw the power
switch is overwhelming.
