Ok how do I run an fsck.
Check which partitions are relevant. Look, for example, in /etc/fstab to make certain which partition(s) are in use for /var. Let's say it's /dev/hda3, and that it's using reiserfs (check by running 'mount' and look for the partition, and see which file system it's using. Candidates are ext2, ext3, reiser, xfs) Boot from the CD, and select rescue system. When you get the prompt, run the proper fsck for the file system you're using. For example, using reiser you run reiserfsck /dev/hda3
