Thanks Alexander!
Your help here is greatly appreciated.
I have since read sysconfig.txt and come away only slightly confused.
Is the filename /etc/sysconfig/.autofsck or
/etc/sysconfig/autofsck

touch /.autofsck
>From /usr/share/doc/initscripts-7.42.2/sysconfig.txt:
/etc/sysconfig/autofsck
does not normally exist; if it does, it can influence a choice
whether or not to fsck after a crash
AUTOFSCK_TIMEOUT=5
Number of seconds to wait for console user to make a choice
AUTOFSCK_DEF_CHECK=no
If the user does not respond, choose whether or not to fsck
So do:
echo "AUTOFSCK_TIMEOUT=5" > /etc/sysconfig/autofsck
echo "AUTOFSCK_DEF_CHECK=yes" >> etc/sysconfig/autofsck
