A Linux system fails to start and delivers the following error message:

Which of the following commands can be used to address this issue?

A.
fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1
Answers
A.
fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1
B.
partprobe /dev/sda1
Answers
B.
partprobe /dev/sda1
C.
fdisk /dev/sda1
Answers
C.
fdisk /dev/sda1
D.
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
Answers
D.
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

The command fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1 can be used to address the issue. The issue is caused by a corrupted filesystem on the /dev/sda1 partition. The error message shows that the filesystem type is ext4 and the superblock is invalid. The command fsck.ext4 is a tool for checking and repairing ext4 filesystems. The command will scan the partition for errors and attempt to fix them. This command can resolve the issue and allow the system to start. The other options are incorrect because they either do not fix the filesystem (partprobe or fdisk) or destroy the data on the partition (mkfs.ext4).
