You can't shift the .journal file out of the way on a mounted filesystem, so if it's the root filesystem that you're worried about, you will _have_ to boot off another media (eg. rescue CD) in order to hide that .journal. Once you've done that, though, it's easy --- e2fsck will do it automatically in current e2fsprogs.
