This option recovers certain kinds of corruption
that do not require rebuilding the entire file sys
tem tree (--rebuild-tree). Normally you only need
this option if the --check option reports "corrup
tion that can be fixed with --fix-fixable". This
includes: zeroing invalid data-block pointers, cor
recting st_size and st_blocks for directories, and
deleting invalid directory entries.
--rebuild-tree
This option rebuilds the entire file system tree
using leaf nodes found on the device. Normally you
only need this option if the --check option reports
"corruption that can be fixed only during
--rebuild-tree". You are strongly encouraged to
make a backup copy of the whole partition before
attempting the --rebuild-tree option.
--clean-attributes
This option cleans reserved fields of Stat-Data
items.
--journal device , -j device
This option supplies the device name of the current
file system journal. This option is required when
the journal resides on a separate device from the
main data device (although it can be avoided with
the expert option --no-journal-available).
--adjust-size, -z
This option causes reiserfsck to correct file sizes
that are larger than the offset of the last discov
ered byte. This implies that holes at the end of a
file will be removed. File sizes that are smaller
than the offset of the last discovered byte are
corrected by --fix-fixable.
--logfile file, -l file
This option causes reiserfsck to report any corrup
tion it finds to the specified log file rather than
stderr.
--nolog, -n
This option prevents reiserfsck from reporting any
kinds of corruption.
--quiet, -q
This option prevents reiserfsck from reporting its
rate of progress.
--yes, -y
This option inhibits reiserfsck from asking you for
confirmation after telling you what it is going to
