I'm wanting to check for disk crashes and through some searches I found the fsck command. When I tried to verify, this message appeared:

$ fsck /dev/sda1
fsck de util-linux 2.27.1
e2fsck 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
/dev/sda1 is mounted.

    WARNING!!!  The filesystem is mounted.   If you continue you ***WILL***
    cause ***SEVERE*** filesystem damage.


    Você realmente deseja continuar?<n>? não
    verificação anulada.

For fear, I preferred to unverify it. When using the GParted program, I right-clicked on the partition and saw that you have the Dismount option.

What exactly is a mounted partition and what risk do I take to unmount it to scan the disk?

What I'm using:

DISTRIB_ID=LinuxMint
DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.2
DISTRIB_CODENAME=sonya
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Mint 18.2 Sonya"
NAME="Linux Mint"
VERSION="18.2 (Sonya)"

Good evening Fox 11. The mounted partition is the partition that is being used by your system. The one you want to dismount (/ dev / sda1) is your root partition. Disassembling it will cause a fatal error in its distribution, so it is not recommended. Some file systems like reiserfs allow the type of activity, but probably yours should be ext3 or ext4. Use the live CD of your distro and you can do the verification you want.
