I got this output:
fsck from util-linux 2.20.1
e2fsck 1.42.9 (4-Feb-2014)
/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root is mounted.
e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.
after I used the fsck command. Any answers?
I'm using the FAT32 file system for my pen drive. It frequently has file/data corruptions.
In Windows, I used the scan disk utility to fix the FAT32/NTFS file systems. How can I do this in Ubuntu?
When working remotely I set a server to force an fsck at boot time with the sudo touch /forcefsck command and rebooted.
After it restarted I checked in /var/log/fsck for the results of the disk check.
Both checkfs and checkroot said: Nothing has been logged yet
So where is it saving the results?
Is there a way to find out if a filesystem check is scheduled for the next boot?
Maybe it's similar to a forced check, which gets triggered by the existence of the file /forcefsck?
I reformatted a hard drive to ext4, planning to use it as a backup drive. After mounting the freshly-formatted drive, I discovered a single empty directory inside it: lost+found. What's the purpose of this mysterious directory?
