"fsck -f /dev/hda2" should do what you want. Make sure it's off of the rescue cd and not single user mode though. Running fsck on a partition mounted read/write is generally a very bad idea. > Note partitions <IIRCC>: /dev/hda1 = Windoze, /dev/hda2 = Linux -2 gig, > /dev/hda3 = Swap, end of disk, 7 meg undefined ? You can't fsck a swap partition, so don't bother with /dev/hda3. You can rerun mkswap if you want though. > Ran "badblocks /dev/hda2" at shell but returned after 5 minutes > without indication or error (?) That should mean that there are no known bad blocks.
