Sometimes if you have to shut-down improperly or power is missing, it
happens that your system doesn't start in the usual way, but in a kind
of emergency mode, and you can enter in it by Ctrl D...after that
usually you have to make a control on your filesystem using an
installation media (DVD or USB key) and running e2fsck at least on your
/home.
Is it not possible to run e2fsck during the standard boot before
filesystems are mounted?? (maybe a stupid question, forgive me and my
bad english)

Instead of typing Ctrl-D, enter the root password and you should get
a root shell, from which you can run e2fsck.  The only time you should
need to do that is if the filesystem has damage more serious than can
be safely repaired by the automatic fsck.  Since you mentioned "e2fsck"
I'm assuming that your filesystem is ext2/3/4.  If it's actually one
of the newer, more exotic types (xfs, btrfs, ...), none of this advice
may apply.


do you mean that I could run e2fsck from inside the root shell? I guessed that filesystems were already mounted and e2fsck doesn't work on mounted filesystems.... I have to study. :-)
