 Options to different filesystem-specific fsck's are not standardized.
-If in doubt, please consult the man pages of the filesystem-specific

-.TP
-.B \-a
-Automatically repair the filesystem without any questions (use
-this option with caution).  Note that
-.BR e2fsck (8)
-supports
-.B \-a
-for backward compatibility only.  This option is mapped to
-.BR e2fsck 's
-.B \-p
-option which is safe to use, unlike the
-.B \-a
-option that some filesystem checkers support.
-.TP
-.B \-n
-For some filesystem-specific checkers, the
-.B \-n
-option will cause the fs-specific fsck to avoid attempting to repair any
-problems, but simply report such problems to stdout.  This is however
-not true for all filesystem-specific checkers.  In particular,
-.BR fsck.reiserfs (8)
-will not report any corruption if given this option.
-.BR fsck.minix (8)
-does not support the
-.B \-n
-option at all.

-.B \-r
-Interactively repair the filesystem (ask for confirmations).  Note: It
-is generally a bad idea to use this option if multiple fsck's are being

-.B \-y
-For some filesystem-specific checkers, the
