For example: What kind of a check would you like to run on your hard disk? If it is a file system check you are interested in, then boot the machine (from the hard disk), take it down to a single user mode ( init 1 ), and then run a filesystem check on root and user filesystems. If you need more help, contact me at (312) 979-0307 or send e-mail. Edward Benyukhis AT&T Bell Laboratories
