OK, lets take a simple example: we have / (root) type ext2 and /boot type
ext2. Let's say we want to check / (root). How do we run e2fsck on these
filesystems when we are booted?

You can use fsck -- specificly e2fsck. File systems check. One thing
to keep in mind is to not have the file system mounted when you do this...
modifying a file system while you are checking it is like russian roulette.

a message came up as it was mounting the drives and said something to the

fixed the drives and rebooted with no problem. Now I was wondering, How do
I check drives for errors comparable to scandisk in windows?
