+.SH NAME
+fsck.minix \- check consistency of Minix filesystem
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B fsck.minix
+[options]
+.I device
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B fsck.minix
+performs a consistency check for the Linux MINIX filesystem.
+.PP
+The program assumes the filesystem is quiescent.
+.B fsck.minix
+should not be used on a mounted device unless you can be sure nobody is
+writing to it.  Remember that the kernel can write to device when it
+searches for files.
+.PP
+The \fIdevice\fR name will usually have the following form:
+.RS
+.TS
+tab(:);
+l l.
+/dev/hda[1\(en63]:IDE disk 1
+/dev/hdb[1\(en63]:IDE disk 2
+/dev/sda[1\(en15]:SCSI disk 1
+/dev/sdb[1\(en15]:SCSI disk 2
+.TE
+.RE
+.PP
+If the filesystem was changed, i.e., repaired, then
+.B fsck.minix
+will print "FILE SYSTEM HAS CHANGED" and will
+.BR sync (2)
+three times before exiting.  There is
+.I no
+need to reboot after check.
+.SH WARNING
+.B fsck.minix
+should
+.B not
+be used on a mounted filesystem.  Using
+.B fsck.minix
+on a mounted filesystem is very dangerous, due to the possibility that
+deleted files are still in use, and can seriously damage a perfectly good
+filesystem!  If you absolutely have to run
+.B fsck.minix
+on a mounted filesystem, such as the root filesystem, make sure nothing
+is writing to the disk, and that no files are "zombies" waiting for
+deletion.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+\fB\-l\fR, \fB\-\-list\fR
+List all filenames.
+.TP
+\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-repair\fR
+Perform interactive repairs.
+.TP
+\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-auto\fR
+Perform automatic repairs.  This option implies
+.B \-\-repair
+and serves to answer all of the questions asked with the default.  Note
+that this can be extremely dangerous in the case of extensive filesystem
+damage.
+.TP
+\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR
+Be verbose.
+.TP
+\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-super\fR
+Output super-block information.
+.TP
+\fB\-m\fR, \fB\-\-uncleared\fR
+Activate MINIX-like "mode not cleared" warnings.
+.TP
+\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-force\fR
+Force a filesystem check even if the filesystem was marked as valid.
+Marking is done by the kernel when the filesystem is unmounted.
+.TP
+\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR
+Display version information and exit.
+.TP
+\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
+Display help text and exit.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+There are numerous diagnostic messages.  The ones mentioned here are the
+most commonly seen in normal usage.
+.PP
+If the device does not exist,
+.B fsck.minix
+will print "unable to read super block".  If the device exists, but is not
+a MINIX filesystem,
+.B fsck.minix
+will print "bad magic number in super-block".
+.SH "EXIT CODES"
+The exit code returned by
+.B fsck.minix
+is the sum of the following:
+.PP
+.RS
+.PD 0
+.TP
+.B 0
+No errors
+.TP
+.B 3
+Filesystem errors corrected, system should be rebooted if filesystem was
+mounted
+.TP
+.B 4
+Filesystem errors left uncorrected
+.TP
+.B 7
+Combination of exit codes 3 and 4
+.TP
+.B 8
+Operational error
+.TP
+.B 16
+Usage or syntax error
