In days of old when unicorns gambolled in gay abandon in lush meadows and I wanted to check the state of the ext4 file system on my system I would, using the command line, issue the following commands (as root [I hate this word!]):
# init 1
# mount -o remount,ro /dev/hdXY
# e2fsck
and this would inform me if the file system was alright or corrupted.
The above now does not work and I get the error message, "<partition> is busy".
What are the correct commands now, please, which replace those above?
I had a similar question related to checking /. Seems systemd has changed things. The advice I was given was to set the check flag in /etc/fstab and then reboot. I am waiting for access to a system that needs just such a check. So I do not know if it is the best way. But this is what I have been led to believe. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
