I just had to rebuild the RPM index as it was corrupt. During the boot process the file system is clean, however another file has been corrupted 'fstab'. I understand that the file system is checked for integrity each boot, however a few other buggy things evolving corrupted files has occurred. Is there a Linux equivalent to chkdsk /? in DOS. . The Netware equivalent would be Vrepair. In other words can I initiate a file by file integrity check in Linux from the console.
Yes, the command is fsck. Have a look at "man fsck" to see the options and caveats. If you suspect data damage I suggest you make a backup now and repair afterwards. -- Sandy List replies only please!
