    I just got 9.0 loaded and everything right where I wanted it when I just
    had to screw around and cause a problem.

    I was trying to transfer information from my CF card reader and I
    couldn't get it to stop so I hit the reset button on my computer. Ya, I
    know it was stupid, but something was locked up and I didn't know what.
    Well, upon rebooting, I had a ton of errors, which would be expected,
    including not being able to get my reiserfs systems mounted. / and /home
    wouldn't mount and during bootup, I got a message saying it couldn't
    fsck and that I would have to do it manually. I tried tweaking and
    playing and finally got to KDE. The problem was that it would reboot
    itself have way through loading. I managed to get into Gnome just fine.

    So, what is the correct way to fsck my / and /home partitions? I read
    the man page but it made about as much sense to me as reading it in a
    foreign language. So, any help would be great!!

    Thanks,
    Tom
