Hi there! I use a lot of gentoo-servers on my vmware esx server boxes...
Now i have the problem, that my kernel mounts the devices sometimes readonly... :( This happens from time to thime, only on a couple of machines... # dmesg prints: EXT3-fs error (device sda3): ext3_readdir: bad entry in directory #200122: rec_len is smaller than minimal - offset=0, inode=0, rec_len=0, name_len=0 Aborting journal on device sda3. EXT3-fs error (device sda3) in start_transaction: Readonly filesystem Aborting journal on device sda3. __journal_remove_journal_head: freeing b_committed_data ext3_abort called. EXT3-fs error (device sda3): ext3_journal_start_sb: Detected aborted journal Remounting filesystem read-only Kernel is: Linux host 2.6.14-gentoo-r6 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Jan 1 19:21:14 CET 2006 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) III CPU family 1400MHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux Any idea what could that be? greetings -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
