I think this is somewhat out of date, is it not.

I force fsck by adding   forcefsck   in grub, ie press e in
the grub menu, move the cursor to the end of the linux line,
type forcefsck and press Ctrl-X or F10 to boot. For example,

  linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.19.0-14-amd64 root=LABEL=toto04 ro systemd.show_status=true quiet forcefsck
