Busybox does have an fsck, it doesn't recognise the filesystem type, you have to give it as an argument. A quick Google suggest that it does indeed pass the work on to e2fsck, however, I tried renaming /sbin/e2fsck and then running "busybox fsck -t ext2 /dev/summat" and it worked. -- Neil Bothwick Copy from another: plagiarism.
