DTL-T10000 UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY RUN fsck MANUALLY! HELP!

Hey everyone


Just got my TOOL and been loving it every second, HOWEVER, I had a power outage and now am experiencing "UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY". I believe the hard disk is ok, is there any way to run a disk repair, sorry I am a bit of a noob when it comes to Linux, let alone on the DTL-T10000. Many thanks in advance

 

Boot the device up and go to a CLI (however you do that) and run:
fsck --help

Which shall give you some help.
You probably want Ext2 checking on /dev/sda

 

I'm a Linux sysadmin, and even I get freaked out by the RUN FSCK MANUALLY warning. But luckily, whilst it looks scary, it's no more serious than a ScanDisk pop-up on Windows.

Just do the following:

1) Hit Ctrl-D. The system should give you a prompt (either to type in the administrator password or just let you in).
2) Type the following: fsck -y /dev/sda
3) Type the following: reboot
4) The system should restart happily. If it doesn't, the operating system could be shagged or the drive may well be faulty.

Note: step 2 might take a while to complete, but be patient - it'll get there in the end.
