fsck ubuntu

Running fsck (File System Consistency Check) on Ubuntu is a way to check and repair inconsistencies in the filesystem. You can run fsck on a filesystem that is not mounted, or you can force a check on the next reboot by using the -f option.

For example, to check the filesystem on your root partition on the next reboot, you could use:

sudo touch /forcefsck

This will create a file named forcefsck in the root directory, which signals to the system to run fsck on the next reboot.
