He meant run the command 3 times, substituting the letters of your actual drives for the variable X
e.g. fsck -n /dev/sda
man page for fsck here in 15.3 has no such option "-n".
But there is. -s Serialize fsck operations. This is a good idea if you are checking multiple filesystems and the checkers are in an interactive mode. (Note: e2fsck(8) runs in an interactive mode by default. To make e2fsck(8) run in a non-interac- tive mode, you must either specify the -p or -a option, if you wish for errors to be corrected automatically, or the ===> -n option if you do not.) It is a documentation error, they forgot to create a paragraph for it. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.3)
