If you want to run fsck, you shouldn't mount the partition you want to run fsck on. That's why fsck gives you the complaint: > WARNING!!!

Apart from that, fsck will inform you about all things it finds to be amiss with your partition, and it will ask you whether it should correct them. -N -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
