Thats a root only command for starters, and it should have made the
machine reboot, during which the fsck on the file systems would have
been done, however you may have to edit /boot/grub/grub.conf to remove
the 'rhgb' from the kernels boot command line before you would see
anything because it would otherwise be hid behind a graphic and all you
would see is a longer bootup time. rhgb is the work of somebody trying
to make it more like a (spit) windows experience. Its a bad idea. We
want to KNOW what its doing while booting.
Thanks, Gene and Rick. I did see the checking to the file system, at
boot stage, but I did *not* see any message with the result of the
checking process.

Then I'd normally expect it was ok, since otherwise it would have
dropped you into a minimal shell so you could fix it.
