[NTLUG:Discuss] Linux box crash

[Ryan Sweat]

Look at the file /etc/fstab.  It will show you which partition
is mounted at /usr.  Then do fsck /dev/hd?? at the command line, 
and it should repair the filesystem.

I believe RedHat began using the LABEL system in /etc/fstab by 7.3.
If your file looks like this, it uses LABEL.

LABEL=/                 /                       ext3    defaults        1 1

To determine which partition has which label, try e2label /dev/hd?? and it will
show you the mountpoint.
