  fsck
       
           file system check.  The {Unix} program that
          checks a {file system} for internal consistency and bad blocks
          etc. and can repair some faults.
       
          fsck is often used after a {crash} when the file system has
          been left in an inconsistent state, e.g. due to incomplete
          flushing of {buffers}.
       
          Used on {Usenet} {newsgroup} alt.sysadmin.recovery as
          substitute for "fuck" and became more main-stream after the
          {Communications Decency Act}.
