Re: "Volume is corrupt, run chkdsk" What's the command?!
said by jdong  :The errors you are getting are because you are running the command as a regular user rather than root (or sudo) Damn, I did the "su" enter command to make me root. I followed these instructions:
1. Boot Knoppix
2. Open Shell
3. Type "su" and press enter. (this makes you root)
4. Type "cfdisk" and press enter.
5. You will see all your partitions on your hard disk. They are e.g. hda1 (probably your C:), hda5 (D:) ... Check those where filesystem is NTFS.
6. Write these down! You should then have a list like: hda1, hda5, hda6
7. Exit cfdisk.
8. Now type: "ntfsfix /dev/hda1" and press enter.
9. Do this and replace hda1 with all occurences on your list.
10. Close Knoppix and reboot.
Windows will boot up and it might take quite a long time while the screen is black. As long as the bluescreen does not come up, everything is okay.
If Windows finally starts okay, you should be done.

There are no Linux tools for checking NTFS disks ntfsfix's only repairative action is to zero the journal, which should only be attempted in emergencies.
Don't use anything other than Windows to check NTFS.
The errors you are getting are because you are running the command as a regular user rather than root (or sudo)
