Of course the lazy option is to reload. . .I am just curious on this one.

You're a bit lazy in providing details about the problem too. Maybe if you
imagine the problem really hard, we might be able to psychically determine
what it is and fix it for you using telekinesis.

If you're as lazy as you say, then reinstalling will be easier than
recovering the server, which sounds like it might be seriously hard work,
depending on how many "errors" you "fixed" in fsck. By the way, if you
really ran scandisk and not fsck against the filesystem, you might as well
give up now.

If you're as lazy as you say, you might find that having good backups helps
you to get away with it.

Cheers, Chris.
