I’ve just downloaded and installed Bonager and I’m already loving it!
Bonager monitors how many reboots are left until your Ubuntu install will automatically initiate an fsck scan on boot up. It will warn you when a scan will be forced on your next boot and will allow you to postpone it.
It’s got a very intuitive interface – a simple tray icon that you can either right click to quit out of or set it to autostart on boot. A left click allows you to see how many mounts you have until an fsck scan is forced or to force a scan on your next boot. Hover the mouse over the icon for information on how many mounts until scanning, how many partitions you have to scan and some quick help.
Bonager is currently at version 0.5.2. You can download it from the Ubuntu Forums. Find out more after the jump.
Bonager is EASY to use. So easy, that everything can be done within three clicks and requires no configuration. Seriously.
And to top it off, Bonager is SAFE to use. It does NOT modify any system files or configurations! Never worry about Bonager making a change to your system that creates conflicts with upgrades or other programs.

SMART Feature Details:
No one likes to mock around with unnecessary configurations or options. Bonager determines what your best option is for the moment and only presents you with a simple [NO] [YES] choice. When Bonager detects that your next boot will force a scan, it will ask you whether or not you would like to postpone it. If Bonager does not detect an impending scan, it will ask you if you would like to force a scan yourself.
