forced file system checking in ubuntu

ubuntu checks the file system every 38th boot (at least in my system) using fsck. it cannot perform this checking while the drive is in use (or mounted). to force ubuntu to check the file system the next time it boots up, at the terminal, issue:

sudo touch /forcefsck
