A filesystem contains different data structures after is created and one of the most important things that is present is the superblock - because is that important there is more then one superblock.
How to find the superblocks and how to do the filesystem check will be shown bellow.
Since some partitions are labeled will we need to find the associated device of the label. How to look on for the label/device association is to follow.
# this is my /etc/fstab LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/opt /opt ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/tmp /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/logs /logs ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/var /var ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 LABEL=SWAP-sda9 swap swap defaults 0 0 # i want to check the partition with label /opt # first step - find what device is associated with the label /opt # to do this we use the command e2label # if you have one or two partitions is as simple as running e2label on those # i have a few partitions so i made a small chained command root# for i in `mount | awk '{print $1}' | grep '/'`; do echo -n "$i=" && e2label $i ;done /dev/hda5=/ /dev/hda8=/tmp /dev/hda7=/usr /dev/hda6=/home /dev/hda3=/logs /dev/hda2=/var /dev/hda1=/boot /dev/hda10=/opt # this is the one I need # running dumpe2fs root# dumpe2fs /dev/hda10 |grep 'Backup superblock' Backup superblock at 32768, Group descriptors at 32769-32769 Backup superblock at 98304, Group descriptors at 98305-98305 Backup superblock at 163840, Group descriptors at 163841-163841 Backup superblock at 229376, Group descriptors at 229377-229377 Backup superblock at 294912, Group descriptors at 294913-294913 Backup superblock at 819200, Group descriptors at 819201-819201 Backup superblock at 884736, Group descriptors at 884737-884737 Backup superblock at 1605632, Group descriptors at 1605633-1605633 # note that you may have a different output # the number after Backup superblock at is the superblock you want # run fsck.ext3 or fsck.ext2 ... or any other command for your filesystem (reiser etc) # first umount the partition root# umount /opt # thenn fsck root# fsck.ext3 -b 32768 /dev/hda10 # after you are done mount back the partition
