When you try to run an application that uses system files, you want to be sure that all the right files are available for it work. To do that, to find the dependencies, you can use another program called ldd. ldd /usr/local/bin/fsck would tell you what shared libraries fsck depends on, and which ones were found. Doing that on the fsck you're interested in would tell you how libuuio.so.1 is not found on your system (in /lib or /usr/lib). It may tell you others are not found. Either way, make note of which libraries it still needs and then go find them on Charles's site in his files. Hopefully, you'll find a libuuid.lrp package. If you install that first, then that library would be available for fsck to use. -------- If you're using an older fsck.lrp package, it may have been compiled so long ago that it won't run properly on your newer dachstein kernel. It will give you an error if that's the case, which you can post about if it occurs.
