So what you are saying is that the old and trusted 'e2fsck' performed on a system by going to level #1 is now no longer a working proposition and that one needs the Rescue DVD/schtik to do this check of the file system? :-) . Press 'e' on the grub entry, add
init=/bin/bash
at the end of the "linux" line. You'll end up in a bash.
mount -o remount,ro / e2fsck -v -C 0 /dev/sdXY
Tested with 13.1 in a vm. Rebooting is a problem though, shutdown, reboot, halt --reboot don't work (because systemd is not running! WHAT A STUPID setup!), exit/ctrl-d, ends in a kernel-panic in the vm. Haven't checked it out more now.
HTH, -dnh
Thanks to all who responded about how to run e2fsck on (my) HDDs. I ran e2fsck by using the 13.1 Rescue DVD. @ David: Using what you suggested above resulted in an error message stating that, "init=/bin/bash is not system, terminate plymouth". @Cristian: Booting with "systemd.unit=rescue.target" simply took me to the normal login screen. Anyway, running e2fsck showed that there were not problems with the file systems.
