similar to: Undeleting files in ext3 (Newbie-question)

Hi all, I know this is the EXT3 list, and my problem is with an EXT2 filesys, but I cannot seem to find a more suitable list on this server, and I have seen a lot of knowledge go by on this list and in the archives, so I thought I'd give it a try anyway... Here goes nothing: I am in a terrible problem: My data disk on my Linux server has gone bad, with approx 18 GB of data on it, and I

Hi, Yesterday I nuked an old fat32 partition on my hard drive using fdisk. I just destroyed the partition and then created a new linux partition. Then I created an ext3 filesystem with the following command mkfs.ext3 -j /dev/hdc1 Everything seemed fine so I went ahead and moved all my music (MP3s and FLACS) onto that partition. This morning when I turn on my computer I can't mount that

first time poster here - hello everyone I started out with CentOS x86 5.3 with the following partitions on my source hard drive: /dev/hdc1 swap /dev/hdc2 / I did the following to migrate my CentOS box to the destination hard drive: 1. boot up with CentOS 5.3 livecd in rescue mode 2. partition destination hard drive (/dev/hdd) /dev/hdd1 swap /dev/hdd2 / 3. create the

Erm, sheez having alot of problems :( I have just been reading all the archives on the mailing list for the past few hours and decided to try make the journal with: tune2fs -j -J10 /dev/hdc1 [root@tkw /]# tune2fs -j -J10 /dev/hdc1 tune2fs 1.20-WIP, 17-Jan-2001 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09 Creating journal inode: done [root@tkw /]# cat /etc/fstab /dev/hdc1 /usr/local ext3

Is this a known problem? I've seen this problem both under 2.0.6 and 2.0.7, on my Debian Linux system (kernel 2.2.14): A Win95 share that I mounted under smbfs will show up as mounted in df, and even contain the correct Used/Available info. If I do an 'ls' on the mountpoint, I see no files. If I 'umount' the share, I get the 'not mounted' error, but then no longer

Hi, Sorry if this is an old and fixed issue but I can't really seem to find a definitive explanation/fix to this in the mail lists. Ever since I upgraded to FC2 my server randomly decides that it can no longer access the disk and "aborts" the ext3 journal leaving it read-only as expected. I've seen the same errors on other mail list, explained away as disk or disk cable

I have been looking at integrating the e2image tool into my nightly backup routines for my systems, to improve the odds that I can get data back if something disastrous happens to my file system. I have a couple of questions about this, though, to work out if this is actually worth doing. Is e2image worth running if the file system is online and in use, under the 2.6 series kernels, as part of

Hi folks -- My machine is a RHEL 3 with 2.4 kernel installed - with some large ext3 filesystems on drives connected internally ( >200G) Now, When this system crashed (for eg:- a CPU panic /hardware error ) - e2fsck on this filesystem seems to be taking a long time to return thereby adding to the overall downtime of this system. could there be any workarounds for my issue? say for

HI, I am trying to find out why an old slower machineis faster than a new faster machine. I have a RedHat 6.2 server installation, it runs samba and I have been very happy with it. Filesystem is:- [darryl@keg darryl]$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda6 1.2G 735M 387M 66% / /dev/hda1 40M 3.0M 35M 8% /boot /dev/hdc1

Hi I have a Raid 1 centos 4.4 setup and now have this /proc/mdstat output: [root at server admin]# cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md2 : active raid1 hdc2[1] hda2[0] 1052160 blocks [2/2] [UU] md1 : active raid1 hda3[0] 77023552 blocks [2/1] [U_] md0 : active raid1 hdc1[1] hda1[0] 104320 blocks [2/2] [UU] What happens with md1 ?

Hi, i have two twofold e2image related questions: 1) The man page mentions "cp (1)"'s --sparse=always option. I wonder if there are sparse aware tools which a) display the "real" amount of disk space occupied by a sparse file b) compress sparse files (other than compressing very thightly several GiB of zeros) 2) "E2fsck, mke2fs, etc.

Hi all, I've been wrestling with a problem with drdb and centos. I have successfully created one drbd resource, but when I try the create a 2nd, I get an error on one of the nodes: Lower device is already mounted. Command 'drbdsetup /dev/drbd1 disk /dev/hdd1 internal -1' terminated with exit code 20 The partition is not mounted from fstab etc and is newly created with parted after

I know there is no straightforward way to recover deleted files on an ext3 file system, but is there any way to recover from an accidental mke2fs? -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Raines email: raines@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu MGH/MIT/HMS Athinoula A.

Hiya, I'm new to Centos but learning rapidly but I have been using FreeBSD. I'm trying to setup a HA NFS server using 2 machines. Both machines are running 4.3 updated to the latest via Yum. I did yum groupinstall drbd-heartbeat and yum install kernel-module-drbd-kernel-module-drbd-2.6.9-34.EL to match my kernel. The problem I have is that on 1 machine drbd works fine, but when I start

I have been trying to implement Mike's tutorial on backup with rsync, but my server has kept crashing in the middle of the rsync transfer. I am backing up /dev/hda1 to /dev/hdc1 on a SuSe v 7.3 i386 box Server crashed 8 times. 16 fsck and 8 reboots later I finally got an error message and a graceful exit from rsync. Somewhere in the middle of the crashes I compiled and installed the

Hello, recently I've ran into the problem that if a user mounts a share multiple times, then it cannot be mounted, except by root. Here is the relevant fstab line: //sephiroth/E /home/unity/Sephiroth smbfs ro,users,noauto 0 0 A user can mount and unmount the fs fine: unity@oaklandgardens ~ $ cd ~unity/ unity@oaklandgardens ~ $ mount Sephiroth/ Password: unity@oaklandgardens ~ $ mount |

I downloaded DOS6.22 image from putergeek.com. Used fdisk from that floppy and format from that floppy. Still no luck. If I execute fdisk under leaf (monkeynoodle.org) as fdisk/dev/hdc, and give p for print partition table, I get the following: Disk /dev/hdc: 16 heads, 32 sectors, 123 cylinders. Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdc1

I am trying to create an additional domain and have created a configuration file based on the examples. When I try to boot the domain, it eventually hits a Kernel panic, as follows: Red Hat nash version 4.1.18 starting Mounted /proc filesystem Mounting sysfs Creating /dev Starting udev Creating root device Mounting root filesystem mount: error 6 mounting ext3 mount: error 2 mounting none

I'm succesfully using isolinux for bootable cd creating, but I want to emulate work with cdrom using hard disk (I have not cd writer at home). Is it possible to use small hard disk as cdrom equivalent? How to do it? I tried using the /dev/hdc1 as output file of isolinux, and after moving disk as primary master and rebooting, bios says that bootrecord is found on IDE-0 and... nothing. It
