I have a system that needs to run e2fsck (C7). I boot into rescue mode,

enter they PW and I type:
e2fsck -y /dev/sda1

What do I do so I can run e2fsck ?
A good first step is to enter "run fsck on root filesystem",
or some such, into your favorite search engine.
Possibilities:
1. # touch /forcefsck
# reboot
2. # reboot
select rescue mode from grub menu which likely has an fsck option
3. boot into live media rather than your hard disk
now your root partition is just any old partition to fsck
