Looking for places that talk about the device causing problems would
be a

lines
about /dev/sda?


and tried to e2fsk /dev/sdb2


And yet again you did not read part of my previous mail, the one about
using
Linux's fsck on microsoft's filesystems.


I have no knowlege of what a windows equivalent to fsck would be.
I hardly use that system.
I only even installed it, because for a brief while I was doing some
work for the State (I work freelance from home) that required windows
only software (my contacts with the state didn't even know what
gnu/linux is), and it had to be run on bare metal, not in a virtual
environment.
Thankfully, I am no longer doing that work.
That system is so slow, stupid and crippled that it's maddening!


I let windows do it's auto-repair thingy, and when I booted back to
Debian, things looked like maybe they were back to normal. I was able to

This can't have anything to do with "the microsoft version of fsck",
because the windows disk (which is actually split into two partitions,
one with the win7 system, and one that's just storage) is running fine
when I boot it (for a crippled OS, anyway), and mounting the storage
partition fine, too.
PLus, I'm having trouble sshfs mounting a remote server running Debian,
which worked fine days ago, now when I try it I get the same I/O errors,
and wierd inode issues I'm getting with this local hdd.


To confirm.
I booted back to windows and did a chkdsk (I'm assuming this is the
nearest thing to a Windows approximation of fsck) for both C:// (the
win7 system and /dev/sdb2) and D:// (storage, /dev/sdb3), and still
cannot mount either partition on this drive when I come back to my
Debian system.
The disk itself is fine, the problem is with the debian system somewhere.
Oh, and I have been able to sshfs mount my remote server again, btw

Still, I'd like to understand and amend the problem and be able to mount

Since both Windows and Trisquel can mount and access is, the problem

The problem seems to be your system and not the mounted disks with NTFS or any
remote shares.

That's what I'd been trying to say.


shot into the dark:
might be that your root partition is full or ran out of inodes?
df -hi

also start your system using a live cd, e.g. knoppix
 [boot with "knoppix 2" to use only command line] and "fsck /dev/sdxn" where x
is the letter of the hard disk where your system resides and n is the number
of the pertinent partition(s).


I had gparted try to check/repair that disk (not mounted anyway, so why 
not?), which failed.

I have posted the output here:
http://tonybaldwin.me/files/gparted_details.htm


is your /usr, /var and /tmp on the same partition than your root?

Yes, my Debian system is all on one disk and one partition, even /home.


hope that helps to analize the problem further

Cheers
Eike

The problem seems to be your system and not the mounted disks with NTFS or any 
remote shares.
shot into the dark:
might be that your root partition is full or ran out of inodes?
df -hi

also start your system using a live cd, e.g. knoppix
 [boot with "knoppix 2" to use only command line] and "fsck /dev/sdxn" where x 
is the letter of the hard disk where your system resides and n is the number 
of the pertinent partition(s).

is your /usr, /var and /tmp on the same partition than your root?

hope that helps to analize the problem further

Cheers
Eike

Looking for places that talk about the device causing problems would

good start. Your problems are on /dev/sdb, so why do you bother with
lines
about /dev/sda?


and tried to e2fsk /dev/sdb2


And yet again you did not read part of my previous mail, the one about
using
Linux's fsck on microsoft's filesystems.


I have no knowlege of what a windows equivalent to fsck would be.
I hardly use that system.
I only even installed it, because for a brief while I was doing some
work for the State (I work freelance from home) that required windows
only software (my contacts with the state didn't even know what
gnu/linux is), and it had to be run on bare metal, not in a virtual
environment.
Thankfully, I am no longer doing that work.
That system is so slow, stupid and crippled that it's maddening!

I let windows do it's auto-repair thingy, and when I booted back to
Debian, things looked like maybe they were back to normal. I was able to
do:
$ ls -li
total 12
1349304 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep  5 13:55 myown
1357617 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 10  2015 win7
1357619 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 10  2015 winhome

Then I tried do mount them again, and got the I/O error,
and they're back to doing this:
$ ls -li
ls: cannot access winhome: Input/output error
ls: cannot access win7: Input/output error
total 4
1349304 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep  5 13:55 myown
  ? d? ? ??   ?? win7
  ? d? ? ??   ?? winhome

I don't get it...

This can't have anything to do with "the microsoft version of fsck",
because the windows disk (which is actually split into two partitions,
one with the win7 system, and one that's just storage) is running fine
when I boot it (for a crippled OS, anyway), and mounting the storage
partition fine, too.
PLus, I'm having trouble sshfs mounting a remote server running Debian,
which worked fine days ago, now when I try it I get the same I/O errors,
and wierd inode issues I'm getting with this local hdd.


To confirm.
I booted back to windows and did a chkdsk (I'm assuming this is the 
nearest thing to a Windows approximation of fsck) for both C:// (the 
win7 system and /dev/sdb2) and D:// (storage, /dev/sdb3), and still 
cannot mount either partition on this drive when I come back to my 
Debian system.

The disk itself is fine, the problem is with the debian system somewhere.
Oh, and I have been able to sshfs mount my remote server again, btw
