Wouldn't it be better to do:

-   [ $ok -eq 0 ] && exit 1
+    if [ $ok -eq 0 ]; then
+	status=1
+	exit 1
+    fi

To catch all failures rather than just the fsck failure?

I think if a test corrupts a filesystem, the test run should stop
so the failure can be analysed without needing to reproduce it
again...

Cheers,

Dave.
