1. Why wouldn't the boot fsck fix the problem without dumping to a command prompt?
I think it's run in "preen" mode or something similar. It will fix simple issues and check things, but if there's a problem that could have significant effects, it wants the admin to check it out.
2. Have a notebook that also has the fedora 28, but it was a clean install. It doesn't even have the /var/lib/yum/yumdb directory. So, am assumming that this was left over from system from serveral upgrades ago.
Yes.
3. Other than booting from another liveos type setup, is there a way to fix this kind of error.
Not really. You either need to use a live boot or work from the primitive command prompt provided by the initramfs.
Machine has been rebooted, but have never seen the error of Structure needing cleaning before.
It's an internal filesystem error, something got corrupted. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
