Syntax and Options for the fsck Command
The fsck command checks and repairs inconsistencies
in file systems. If you run the fsck command without any
options, it interactively asks for confirmation before making repairs. This
command has four options:
Command and Option | Description |
|---|
fsck -m | Checks whether a file system can be mounted |
fsck -y | Assumes a yes response for all repairs |
fsck -n | Assumes a no response for all repairs |
fsck -o p | Noninteractively preens the file system, fixing
all expected (innocuous) inconsistencies, but exits when a serious problem
is encountered |
