If you know the partition, subst as appropriate for /dev/hda1
fsck -t ext3 -V -r /dev/hda1
The -t just makes sure ext3 is specified, the -V is for verbose, and
-r will prompt for repairs
If you don't know the partition number, then you can use this to check
all systems listed in /etc/fstab
fsck -t ext3 -V -r -A
