Same; that would really improve the remote router scenario. I've had a router refuse to boot up after a power outage until I manually ran a disk check. I'd like to at least be able to force start-up no matter what, but journaling is the proper fix.
Agreed! I think the only other solution (at present) is to mount as much of the system read-only as possible to minimize the risk of needing to `fsck` after an unclean shutdown. That and putting it behind a UPS, but of course that only lasts so many hours.
