similar to: ext3-Partition lost after crash !?

Hi I am running a PC under Linux SuSE 7.2 with kernel 2.4.18, self compiled. I changed some days ago the partition of my second HD from ext2 to ext3 with the help of tune2fs -j /dev/hdb2 and everything was running OK. Today, I had a problem with a frozen display and I had to reboot the box cold. During the corresponding forced check I got the following messages: Quote --------- /dev/hdb2: reading

Thank you very much for the help with my problems after I changed ext2 in ext3. So far, everything is now running smootly. However, tune2fs -l /dev/hdb2 delivers among a long output one line Fls features : has_journal needs_recovery What does this mean and how can I perform such a recovery ? Thanks in advance Edgar -- ----------------------------------- Dr.-Ing. Edgar Alwers

Hi, I connected my harddisk which had ext3 filesystem and some files archived in it as slave device and issued "mkfs /dev/hdb2" accidentally. Immediately I issued Ctrl C and stopped the process. But before that it had deleted some 100 Blocks. After that I am unable to boot that hard disk as primary device. The system is asking me "please insert a valid boot device and press

hi everyone, i installed the ext3 fs on a test machine and tried to use quota on the ext3 filesystem. When i use the command quotaon /dev/hdb2 (the partition with the ext3 fs) i get the message: quotaon: using /home/quota.user on /dev/hdb2: Invalid argument. I created the quota.user and quota.group files and set the permissions to 600. I use quota-2.oopre3-7a, e2fsprogs-1.20-0ext3, kernel 2.2.18

Hi, I have CentOS 5.0 which use an old hard disk. And recently I found there are some bad sector on it ... I try to backup my data to other CentOS 5.0 box .... What I did is. I remove the old HD (with bad sector) and install it as a slave IDE on a working CentOS 5.0 ... I try to mount the old HD as /mnt/oldDisk but since it's a LVM, the "mount -t ext3" doesn't work. I'm

Hi again I have a minimal Fedora Core 3 image running fine as domain 0 (thanks and sorry for the previous FAQ query) using both the standard install ramdisk image, and the FC3 ramdisk image downloaded from xen sourceforge. However, I can''t get it running in a non-zero domain. In brief, I have a full FC3 installed on /dev/hda1, which I typically use as my domain 0 OS. Then I have a

Hello everyone, I came back from a long vacation the other day to a RH 7.3 system that would not boot. My situation is similar to Eddy's post "Seriously corrupt ext3 root filesystem - help?" from a couple of days ago. I can mount the drive in read-write and read-only modes. I can get into some of the directories and get certain files off of the disk. But, if I try to access a

I am trying to mount a FAT32 partition in CentOS. I'm following the instructions on this page: http://www.linuxforum.com/linux_tutorials/14/1.php This is the line I put into /etc/fstab /dev/hda /mnt/windows vfat users,owner,rw,umask=000 0 0 And this is the error I get: [root at localhost mnt]# mount -a mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on

I've tried to create a Linux swap file, but when I run fdisk, it looks like this: Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 * 1 3644 29270398+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb2 3645 3737 747022+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA) /dev/hdb5 3645 3737 746991 82 Linux swap Why is this W95 partition existing in the

I have configured 2x 500G sata HDD as Software RAID1 with three partitions md0,md1 and md2 with md2 as 400+ gigs Now it is almost 36 hours the status is cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md0 : active raid1 hdb1[1] hda1[0] 104320 blocks [2/2] [UU] resync=DELAYED md1 : active raid1 hdb2[1] hda2[0] 4096448 blocks [2/2] [UU] resync=DELAYED md2 : active raid1

Ok, this is the case: I've got two raid-5 arrays with software raid, both with three disks. Setup: md0 has hdb2, hdd1 and sda1 md1 has hdb5, hdd3 and sda3 Tonight, the system lost power due to a power spike. The result was a reboot where it attempted to fix the raid, but it didn't exactly work. I have now booted a live CD and using utilities there. It seems the checksum value is

Hi, I want to slowly migrate from Debian to CentOS, so I setup a multiboot on my main machine. There's a Debian Etch install on /dev/hda, and GRUB is also installed on the Debian side. On /dev/hdb, I have CentOS 5. I fdisked the drive manually, then chose manual partitioning during install. The setup for CentOS is: hdb1 -> swap hdb2 -> /boot, ext2 hdb3 -> / , ext3 After

Hi I would be grateful if somebody would tell me why can't I access shared folder on Ubuntu 5.04 computer (computer name is my-computer) from my Windows XP computer (its name is tablet-pc). I am using Samba 3.0.10-Ubuntu. I see this folder in Windows XP but when I try to access it I get error "\\My-computer\backup is not accessible. [...] Network access is denied."

I am trying to convert an existing IDE one-disk system to RAID1 using the general strategy found here: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2005-March/003813.html But I am stuck on one thing - when I went to create the second md device with mdadm, # mdadm --create /dev/md1 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/hdb2 missing mdadm: error opening /dev/md1: No such file or directory And indeed,

Hi users, I was working with GNU parted and got some changes in the partition and the system crashed. I had to freshly install RH Linux 9 again as it didn't detect the linux installation. Now the problem is /dev/hda is mounted but not showing any data files. It has full of data originally. Anyhow Can i recover those data. I didnt format any of the hard drive expect the root partition for

Hi, I'm trying to copy my CentOS install to a new drive. - old drive is /dev/hda and had hda1 : /boot hda2 : swap hda3 lvm hda5 : lvm hda4 : /usr/local - new drive is /dev/hdb hdb1 : /boot hdb2 : swap hdb3 : / I decided to get rid of lvm which is useless to me. I've created and formated the new partitions and copied anything from the old drive to the new one

Hi, Apologies in advance for any breaches of netiquette, I couldn't find any guidelines about submission to this forum but I'd be grateful for your help on something. My /boot filesystem is being remounted shortly after start-up as read-only. I get the following messages... journal_bmap_Ra7a5f568: journal block not found at offset 12 on ide0(3,1) Aborting journal on device ide0(3,1)

Hi, I'm currently experimenting with software RAID1 on a spare PC with two 40 GB hard disks. Normally, on a desktop PC with only one hard disk, I have a very simple partitioning scheme like this : /dev/hda1 80 MB /boot ext2 /dev/hda2 1 GB swap /dev/hda3 39 GB / ext3 Here's what I'd like to do. Partition a second hard disk (say, /dev/hdb) with three
