Everything other than the root file system is normally set to '2'.

When fsck is run without a named file system and with the "-o p"
("preen") option, it scans the vfstab entries. Entries with pass 0
are ignored. Those with pass 1 are checked immediately when
encountered. Those with 2 or higher are checked in parallel after the
1 entries are handled.

By setting this to '1', you'll just slow down the boot process.

I don't believe that numbers above 2 have significance -- they're the
same as 2.
