device

DESCRIPTION

Reiserfsck searches for a Reiserfs filesystem on a device,

replays any necessary transactions, and either checks or

repairs the file system.

device is the special file corresponding to the device or

partition (e.g /dev/hdXX for IDE disk partition or

/dev/sdXX for SCSI disk partition).

OPTIONS

--rebuild-sb

This option recovers the superblock on a Reiserfs

partition. Normally you only need this option if

mount reports "read_super_block: can’t find a reis

erfs file system" and you are sure that a Reiserfs

file system is there.

--check

This default action checks file system consistency

and reports but does not repair any corruption that

it finds. This option may be used on a read-only

file system mount.
