Thnx, michaaa62.
I tried with sudo su and i got this:
sh-3.2# ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
ls: /dev/disk/by-uuid: No such file or directory
I dont know about that app, but I tried with Disk Utility on "Nokia N900" (I dont think its the right disk/folder w /home, /opt) and it shows that everything is OK, and I cant use DiskWarrior, because Nokia N900 is fat32.

Okay, my fault, i totally forgot the inability of Mac OS to handle Ext2,3,4-formatted disks.
There are some 'hacks' or tweaks to get something working via fuse and some third party drivers/modules, but i do not know, if this will expand toward diskutility or diskwarrior. May be some Linux-Live-CD would help you.

Now I am a little bit confused.
Is the main partition (I'm not speaking about the root partition) automatically checked or not?
I thought that I had only to wait 30 reboots and then the file system was checked and repaired automatically?
Is that true or not?

Mine is not checked at all, but this might be by some tweaks, i do not remember.
You could check with
Look for values for
You could check with
Code:
tune2fs -l /dev/mmcblk0p2
Check interval:
Maximum mount count:

I don't think tune2fs has any effect on checking or not.
Basically, fsck reads the check interval when it's run, then it does a check if last check was longer ago than check interval. Or, if filesystem was not cleanly unmounted.
However, fsck is never run in Maemo, so check interval does nothing.

ffs noob.
1. boot backupmenu and use either serial console/USB networking to access the device then fsck.
2. boot some linux live cd like gparted, backup menu to enable USB mode.
3. boot the device in offline mode, leace it to settle for around 4 minutes, run fsck and ignore warnings about fsck'ing a mounted disk. As long as no programs are running, you can usually get away with it.
4. power kernel settings 'kernel-power-settings' has a run early fsck function in its boot up script.
job. done.
