What does it really mean that the fs is x% non-contiguous??
On my last check fsck reported 7.5% Non-Contiguous on one of my partitions. I don't know if i should worry or not and how should i fix the fs "problem".
non-contiguous means fragmentation. If you want to defragment your partition, there might be some tool. Usually, in Linux you don't need to defragment since the filesystems are more performant thant the windows one. I wouldn't worry unless the % gets big.

It asked me to do maintenance the first time this error came up, but I could not fix it, and ended up rebooting. How do I do the maintenance?
