[svlug] fsck on HD booted from CD???

[Skip Evans]

Hey all,

I've been installing Xubuntu, which I am really 
liking, on our workstations here in the office 
today, and I ran into a snag with one.

It kept getting errors on the HD during several 
install tries, so I figured it might help to run fsck.

(Sorry, I didn't write down the error, but it 
certainly read like a HD sector glitch kind of 
thing, probably a bad spot that maybe fsck could 
take care of)

Anyway, the partial install now has the machine 
unbootable from the HD, and the only thing I can 
get to boot at all is a Live CD of Freesbie 1.1.

It is now booted, and I would like to run fsck on 
the HD, except the fstab file is empty for the 
this live CD boot.

How can I run fsck, or some other way to check 
out/clean up the hard drive?

Thanks!
Skip
