Hey everyone,

Has anyone figured out a clean way to e2fsck the /home filesystem? I noticed in my kernel log that it mounted with errors, but it never runs e2fsck on bootup.

For now I suspended maemo-launcher (kill -STOP) and killed all the subprocesses, as well as the thumbnailer daemon, and anything else that looked like it may write. However, if you kill anything dsme related, it seems to trigger a watchdog that immediately reboots.

I couldn't remount r/o at that point, but it seemed all I/O was quiescent. After a sync, I fsck'd with /home mounted r/w (yeah, yeah, I know .. that's why I'm asking the question! ). Quick reboot -f, and everything seems fine now; filesystem is not in error.

There must be a cleaner way to do this.
