First, download the attached 301-init_fsck.tar.gz.
Then go here and download 0_pupbuild_tools_2.tar.gz.
(See link in jrb's first post.)

Copy both files to your /tmp/ folder, then Select All and Extract contents of both.
Open the 0_pupbuild_tools folder and copy 3.01's initrd.gz to initrd-tree.

Select Open_initrd.sh.
Your old initrd.gz will appear as initrd.gz1.
Open the initrd-tree folder and replace init with the one from 301-init_fsck.tar.gz.

Select Rebuild_initrd.sh.
Your new initrd.gz will appear, now with the fsck boot option.

ohh... Dude... how about simply installing grub4dos... IT WILL do same without building anything... less the menu.lst.

Changing bootloaders won't change a boot option inside Puppy.

Indeed.
Booting to pfix=fsck without modifying initrd.gz, it defaults to normal boot.
(That is, if there's a save file. If not, it defaults to pfix=ram.)
