While I untar a large archive on xfs , ext3 (ver 1.3 and ver 1.4) file systems , on ppc processor and kernel ver 2.6.21 , I get an error. Also sometimes, on ext3 (1.3 and 1.4) the file system goes read-only while untarring. The same tar file when untarred on a i386 machine works properly. ERROR: -------------- tar: Skipping to next header gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors ------------------- Can any1 suggest some tools/method how to investigate the crash or proceed with the task ? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Problem-with-file-system-tf4683372.html#a13382672 Sent from the Ext3 - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Also, did you fsck.ext3 your filesystem lately? Christian. -- BOFH excuse #442: Trojan horse ran out of hay
