Hi A friend of mine managed to corrupt his block group descriptor table. When starting e2fsck, it says that it is corrupt and will use the backup. Great! However, will e2fsck be able to fix this, or will I have to do this manually? The FSCK is still running, expected to finish "pass 1" in about four hours.
