why should a systemcrash in particular be cause for fragmentation?
fragmentation either occurs during normal usage or it doesn't.
what gives you the idea that your filesystems are now much more
fragmented than before?
in general fragmentation on linux filesystems has never been any kind of
problem. there is nothing to be concerned about, just leave it as it is.
