Installation

Hello,

When restarting after out of disk space failure, it was displaying messages about fsck:
(This is Ova VM version)

It looks like embedded Docker container issue?

And then it wouldn’t boot and opened into ha shell. In that shell there’s no fsck and I just want to ask what is the safe boot procedure to check the disk.
Eventually, after two more reboot attempts it started normally by itself, but I am concerned that corrupt blocks are still there,.
The Haos guide didn’t help me.

  1. If I get into “emergency” shell situation again, how to I fsck from here?
  2. Now It booted normally, what do I do to run fsck, and/or anything else need to do for maintenance?

Thank you.

What hypervisor are you using ?

It is called simply “Virtual Machine Manager”

Never heard of that one. If it was Virtualbox, I would simply mount the .VDI in a Debian VM, and run fsck from there.

That would be QEMU/libvirtd/KVM based. I compose those things/images myself mostly as a flat image file, but yours might by qcow2 format. That is more complicated to mount on the host but can be done.

The EXT4 error could be non-permanent, the filesystem is extended at that time, but I am not an expert on EXT4, I don’t really use it.
