Hi

I tried with e2fsck -f /dev/sdc1
but I got the message:

WARNING!!!  The filesystem is mounted.   If you continue you ***WILL***
cause ***SEVERE*** filesystem damage.

Of curse I didn't continue...

How I have to do this test ?
Have I to boot the computer using some utility that didn't need the hard disk ?

Before you try to run e2fsck on /dev/sdc1, simply give the command:

umount /dev/sdc1

This will unmount the partition, and then you can do a file check without
destroying it. Note that there is only ONE "n" in the umount command!
