type fsck /dev/drv[partnumber]
for instance:
fsck /dev/hda14
will check/clear your 14th partition on hda
to find your partition names, type "dmesg | grep hd", you'll get info about
your drives, then all the partitions on them. I'd suggest checking all your
partitions (that it allows, can't check swap, or HFS). If you only check
one and restart, you'll more often than not dropped out to check another
one.
You'll have to answer "Y" to lots of questions, your judgement as to wether
you should.

Note: if your system is SCSI based, it will be sd, not hd.

I must have improperly shut down my system and now it
will not let me boot, it justs drops me at a recovery
command prompt. I am using YDL 2.0. How do I repair
the filesystem if it was improperly dismounted from here?
