Running 'fsck.reiserfs --check -y ' will do the trick. The equivalent for ext3 and other filesystems is 'fsck -n ', the ext3 version detects that it is mounted rw, and does a readonly check. What I wonder is if we can get fsck.reiser[fs,4] to honour option processing in a manner more consistant with the other fscks, so that adding reiserfs to a list of user choosable filesystems is not going to cause a nightmare of an overhead of filesystem detection, command option re-mapping and other related headaches..... > > Thanks, > Lena > > btinsley wrote: > >> Is there or was there a plan to support running reiserfsck on a >> mounted v3 filesystem (just a check, not a fix or rebuild)?
