Taylor,

I had a nasty crash with RH 7.2 and it couldn't fix itself
during reboot and said to run fsck manually.  
I knew to run fdisk to get my harddrive partition device
names and ran 'fsck /dev/hda1'.
My system was still broken and 'fsck' told me to run
'e2fsck -B blocksize /dev/hda1' and gave me the
blocksize to use so I could recover from a second
extended file system.

I did a man on e2fsck before I did it so I would know
what I was trying to do.

Worked like a charm and I recovered just fine.

My advice to newbies is to follow the directions that
RedHat gives you during the reboot and do a man on
any commands you don't understand so you know what
you're trying to do so you can avoid the pain of reinstalling
your system.
