so and what are you guys saying if i explain you that
i WANT THIS MESSAGES bedcause I WANT to SEE
/dev/sda2: clean, 435608/1310720 files

it would be a much more useful work to patch systemd
taht the progress of fsck is also displayed for the
rootfs as also the fs-label instead only a cryptical
UUID with no repsone until it is finished
