Error on boot up

systemd-fsck[529]: /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--home:

UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY...

Welcome to emergency mode! After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view system logs, "ststemctl reboot" to reboot, "systemctl default" to try again to boot into ddefault mode.

Give root password for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue):

Solution one

  • Boot the machine from Fedora 19 installation DVD
  • Select Troubleshooting
  • Select Rescue Fedora insallation
  • Select option SKIP to move to shell without mounting the filesystem.
  • type command # cd /dev/mapper . and check for your installation ,something like fedora_XXX-root .
  • run command #fsck /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX-root
  • fsck will run and fix the errors
  • if there are questions about fixing, select yes 'y'
If the first step is completed you may not need to try further steps as your problem will already be fixed. type exit and reboot the system. Solution two
  • type in your root password (you will not see anything when you are typing, but its typing)
  • type fsck
    • - if you get an error message like the one below, try Solution #2 or Solution #3 /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--root is mounted e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.
  • if there are questions about fixing, ignoring, forcing, salvage, etc, always answer y (yes)
Solution three
  • type fsck - if you get an error message like the one below, try Solution #2 or Solution #3 /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--root is mounted e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.
  • type the commands below, remember to substitute XXX with the one specified in your error umount /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--root umount /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--home umount /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--swap
  • type fsck /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--root
  • if there are questions about fixing, ignoring, forcing, salvage, etc, always answer y (yes)
  • repeat step 2 & 3 with --home & --swap just to be sure
Solution four
  • Boot into your LiveCD or LiveUSB
  • once logged in, open gnome-disks utility from the applications (I think its called Disks)
  • unmount all the /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--root & home & swap
  • open a gnome-terminal (terminal)
  • . type su
  • enter your root password
  • type fsck /dev/mapper/fedora_XXX--root
  • if there are questions about fixing, ignoring, forcing, salvage, etc, always answer y (yes)
  • repeat step 7 & 8 with --home & --swap just to be sure
