No, you're missing the point.

IIRC, that graphical boot won't display *anything* until you've hit 
runlevel 5. fsck'ing discs happens before the runlevel switch.

So, if you're fsck'ing, the graphical boot will just sit there and do 
nothing, no status output whatsoever, not even if you click "show 
output". THen, when the fsck'ing is done, it will display the bootup 
procedure, as per usual.
