John, the reason why your post caused such a response is because mailing list etiquette dictates that you should do all that you can to help yourself before posting a message to a list that uses bandwidth, CPU, IO, memory, and brain cycles on likely hundreds if not thousands of computers and people. You spent effort typing your 305 character email, when, on your own machine you could've typed the 11 character command line: man e2fsck -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
