You have to read quite carefully to get it and be familiar with the
filesystem-specific options for your filesystem.  Since the -f option
is not recognized by fsck proper, it is passed on the the actual
filesystem-specific executable.  For most filesystems, it's a
force-flag that makes fsck.??? do a full check.
