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

I just came back after being out for the evening. Apparently there was a power failure long enough to discharge the UPS completely on my Linux box. After powering back up, I received notice that the / filesystem needed "manual fsck"ing. I booted off CD and attempted to fsck. Unfortunately, everything I've tried has proved futile and I'm _desperate_ for some help. I've

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

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.

I have several pdf files as .pdf.bz2, as seen here: a/1.pdf.bz2 a/2.pdf.bz2 a/b/3.pdf.bz2 a/b/c/4.pdf.bz2 I want to copy everything in and under directory a to another computer, but I want the files to be decompressed on the destination machine: a/1.pdf a/2.pdf a/b/3.pdf a/b/c/4.pdf I could just use rsync and run a bunch of bunzip2 commands on the destination after the copying is completed,

Hi, I've run many time e2fsck, but in a special dir ls tells me: ls: r?cksendung-wlan.dvi: No such file or directory ls: baf?g_r?ckmeldung.latex: No such file or directory ls: finpr?f.pdf: No such file or directory $ cat finpr?f.pdf cat: finpr?f.pdf: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden I don't know what to do?

Recently I've encountered a problem, and now I would preciate any help about being able to undelete files. My /var filestructured is mounted at /dev/hdc1 Part of my /etc/mtab looks like this: /dev/hdc1 /var ext3 rw 0 0 I'm using the e2fsprogs-1.23-2 package currently installed with Redhat 7.2 So, could anyone give me a hint of how things could be done to find deleted inodes?

Hi everybody, Today I tried the latest Solaris on Xen build. I downlaoded all files and created the iso. Then I wanted to run setup_install_server , but this failed: bash-3.00# ./setup_install_server /export/sol_xen/ -bash: ./setup_install_server: cannot execute binary file -bash-3.00# So I create a tar file to copy over all files to export/sol_xen/ Then I tried to start and install via

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! I was testing 2.6.0-test5, but got lots of journal aborted errors. Then I Sysrq-s/u/b and wanted to boot 2.4.23-pre3 or 2.4.22, but ext3 error: cannot find root fs cannot mount because of unsupported optional feature (4) after trying to mount it with ext2 (rootfstype=ext2, not working) I rebooted again into 2.4.22, this time there was just severe fs corrpution, illegal blocks, inodes,

I'm trying (and failing) to install Icecast on a fresh-off-the-line Redhat 9.0 box. When I attempt to install the RPM with the command: # rpm -i icecast-2.0.1-1.i386.rpm ..the result is: error: Failed dependencies: curl >= 7.10.0 is needed by icecast-2.0.1-1 ...so okay, I wonder to myself, which verion of curl do I have running? # yum info curl ...and I learn that I am running a

I've used NUT successfully for monitoring many different brands of UPS, but this one has me stumped. It has the same manufacturer ID and Product ID as older supported MGE-type Eaton UPS's, but has trouble talking. I tried Ubuntu's repo NUT, and it logs a Connecting to UPS message every few seconds forever, but never really succeeds (or says it fails). Different failure mode after

I'm explicitly forwarding this message to the people Christian HJW sent his mail, just in case. There'll be no more crossposting. If anyone has opinions to share, it'd be just right to send it to ffmpeg-devel (flames like HJW's can go to devnull) (BTW, HJW's rant is just like the ones on debian-devel. Even I unsubscribed from that list, because it's so lame:) Arpi wrote:
