I can't seem to be able to run e2fsck on my /home

still reports "resource is busy". lsof doesn't tell me
what's using the partition.
Are the good old methods of doing shutdown with -F or touching a file
called forcefsck deprecated?
At worst, you should be able to use tune2fs and -C option to set the
mount-count and it will be automatically fsck'ed at the next reboot.
See the man page for details.
