The same as in pretty much any other Linux or Unix distribution.NOTE: If you wish to repair a file system, it is recommended that you dismount it first (umm, strongly recommended, in fact).Switch user to root and issue the fsck command (dismounting the file system first if disk repairs are intended) passing the pathname of the device to be checked (and optionally repaired) with the fsck command.Most implementations of fsck include command line interface switches that permit interactive repair or automatic repair of file systems, depending on the user's knowledge levels or personal preferences. If you aren't familiar with the particulars of file system repairs on the file system to be checked, it is recommended that fsck be allowed to make it's repairs automatically.Lastly, if the file system was dismounted before fsck was run, remount file system on desired mount point and use as desired.
