Here is a little helper if your Webmin does not respond.
Just run this command from the command line and it will bring the webmin service up again fresh.
# /etc/init.d/webmin restart
Following messages will appear after running that command.
# Stopping Webmin server in /usr/share/webmin
# Starting Webmin server in /usr/share/webmin
After a fresh restart the Webmin server should be running again.

# fsck
fsck is used to check and optionally repair one or more Linux file systems.
If no filesystems are specified on the command line, and the -A option is not specified, fsck will default to checking filesystems in /etc/fstab serial. This is equivalent to the -As options.

2 - System should be rebooted
4 - File system errors left uncorrected
