Although fsck indicates a lot of problems, I think it is not the disk which is malfunctioning. I have run the Maxtor diagnostics over it and that gave 'a certified functioning device', so no bad sectors or anything.
But I ran memtest86 afterwards and discovered that two addresses are broken, so that might be the problem. I am going to get it out today and see if everything will work then.

That is possiblem but what 2 addresses????
I have a box that functions perfectly but memtest86 always reports 2 addresses in the same test as an error.
Does not matter if I run the test once or if I run it a hundred times, it always reports the same addresses, yet it works perfectly.

How can I manually start fsck? Usually it only starts when power fails... when I try to start manually, it warns me about the device which is mounting. When I try to unmount, it wont work, probably because it is the main disk.

touch /forcefsck
and then reboot
