sudo touch /forcefsck

forces a file system check on the next start up. Use the tune2fs program if you want to change the check frequency, see its man page for how to use it.

Thanks. This seems to only perform a very short scan. Is there a way to do a more comprehensive scan? – tinny Jun 26 '10 at 0:10
