File Systems<br />

All detected file systems are subjected to a file system–specific check.<br />

Entries in the File /etc/fstab<br />

The entries in the file are checked for completeness and consistency. All<br />

valid partitions are mounted.<br />

Boot Loader Configuration<br />

The boot loader configuration <strong>of</strong> the installed system (GRUB or LILO) is<br />

checked for completeness and coherence. Boot and root devices are examined<br />

and the availability <strong>of</strong> the initrd modules is checked.<br />

Package Database<br />

This checks whether all packages necessary for the operation <strong>of</strong> a minimal<br />

installation are present. While it is optionally possible also to analyze the<br />

base packages, this takes a long time because <strong>of</strong> their vast number.<br />

4 Whenever an error is encountered, the procedure stops and a dialog opens outlining<br />

the details and possible solutions.<br />

Read the screen messages carefully before accepting the proposed fix. If you<br />

decide to decline a proposed solution, your system remains unchanged.<br />

5 After the repair process has been terminated successfully, click OK and Finish<br />

and remove the installation media. The system automatically reboots.<br />

Customized Repair<br />

To launch the Customized Repair mode and selectively check certain components <strong>of</strong><br />

your installed system, proceed as follows:<br />

1 Boot the system with the original installation medium used for the initial installation<br />

(as outlined in Chapter 1, Installation with YaST (page 3)).<br />

2 Select the Repair Installed System installation mode.<br />

3 Select Customized Repair.<br />

Choosing Customized Repair shows a list <strong>of</strong> test runs that are all marked for execution<br />

at first. The total range <strong>of</strong> tests matches that <strong>of</strong> automatic repair. If you<br />

already know where no damage is present, unmark the corresponding tests.<br />
