+== NAME
+
+fsck.minix - check consistency of Minix filesystem
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+*fsck.minix* [options] _device_
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+*fsck.minix* performs a consistency check for the Linux MINIX filesystem.
+
+The program assumes the filesystem is quiescent. *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.
+
+The _device_ name will usually have the following form:
+
+____
+[cols=",",]
+|===
+|/dev/hda[1-63] |IDE disk 1
+|/dev/hdb[1-63] |IDE disk 2
+|/dev/sda[1-15] |SCSI disk 1
+|/dev/sdb[1-15] |SCSI disk 2
+|===
+____
+
+If the filesystem was changed, i.e., repaired, then *fsck.minix* will print "FILE SYSTEM HAS BEEN CHANGED" and will *sync*(2) three times before exiting. There is _no_ need to reboot after check.
+
+== WARNING
+
+*fsck.minix* should *not* be used on a mounted filesystem. Using *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 *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.
+
+== OPTIONS
+
+*-l*, *--list*::
+List all filenames.
+
+*-r*, *--repair*::
+Perform interactive repairs.
+
+*-a*, *--auto*::
+Perform automatic repairs. This option implies *--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.
+
+*-v*, *--verbose*::
+Be verbose.
+
+*-s*, *--super*::
+Output super-block information.
+
+*-m*, *--uncleared*::
+Activate MINIX-like "mode not cleared" warnings.
+
+*-f*, *--force*::
+Force a filesystem check even if the filesystem was marked as valid. Marking is done by the kernel when the filesystem is unmounted.
+
+include::man-common/help-version.adoc[]
+
+== DIAGNOSTICS
+
+There are numerous diagnostic messages. The ones mentioned here are the most commonly seen in normal usage.
+
+If the device does not exist, *fsck.minix* will print "unable to read super block". If the device exists, but is not a MINIX filesystem, *fsck.minix* will print "bad magic number in super-block".
+
+== EXIT STATUS
+
+The exit status returned by *fsck.minix* is the sum of the following:
+
+*0*::
+No errors
+*3*::
+Filesystem errors corrected, system should be rebooted if filesystem was mounted
+*4*::
+Filesystem errors left uncorrected
+*7*::
+Combination of exit statuses 3 and 4
+*8*::
+Operational error
+*16*::
+Usage or syntax error
