file system check
Hi - I'm not sure how to implement the fsck command. I want to practice using the it - I am using Fedora. I visited the man pages looking for an example. I have two partitions /dev/sda1 (boot) and /dev/sda2.
These are the two commands and the results #umount /dev/sda2 umount: /dev/sda2: not mounted #fsck /dev/sda2 fsck 1.40.8 (13-Mar-2008) fsck: fsck.lvm2pv: not found fsck: Error 2 while executing fsck.lmv2pv for /dev/sda2 Thank you, Gene |
this command is ran by the system. It requires the drive to be unmounted. In short it is ran upon bootup not during a live system. I believe I have seen that it can be ran on a system that is up but is highly discouraged.

what filesystem is this?
LVM? |
Yes
The partition /dev/sda2 is 8e Linux LVM
|
FSCK has no way to figure out what is in such partition.
it is just an errormessage make sure you fsck the path of the volume and not the actual physical partition. eq if it is ext3 Code:
fsck.ext3 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 |
Thank you
I have to figure how to send a thank you reply in the post
