This happened to a friend of mine today. She had to phone me, and I had to explain to her about the 'fsck -y'. It wasn't even clear to me what was wrong, she just said it says it can't mount a filesystem, on the phone. So, yes, making this process easier for non-expert people, a simple yes/no

The best route for practically all users is probably fsck -y. Yes, there's a tiny chance that a) fsck will break something AND b) that something happens to be important to the user AND c) the user could have done better manually BUT d) they didn't bother backing up AND e) they didn't know that

I'm nominating this proposed fix for Intrepid for the drivers to consider whether they like the fix (changing -p to -y). I assume it's not necessary to allocate any resources to figure out how to implement it, i.e., I assume it's a one-line change somewhere. -- Command-line recovery required

And if there's some tool out there that is better at recovering data than fsck, why not investigate running that tool instead (or maybe in addition to fsck). Anyways, asking and making it CRYSTAL CLEAR and DEAD SIMPLE what needs to be done to get back to a working state is better than what's

lost+found is useful, and people should be reminded that it is there. But there is a lot of info that fsck spews out, like directory names and inodes, that is currently not seen again as far as I know. Sounds like a separate bug on fsck (or user education :-) might be in order, but nevertheless I

Please don't just fsck automatically for folks. This just happened to me, and I ended up with a broken system by following the directions and running fsck and having to hold down the enter key for a LONG time while ominous messages flew by offering to remove illegal blocks, duplicate blocks, etc.

fsck puts all data that can be salvaged in lost+found, right? Other than that, is it really useful to dump the disk image for any other purpose but debugging? -- Command-line recovery required when fsck reports an unexpectedy inconsistency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/58430 You received this

I think the reasoning is wrong here. so, we are in the situation that fsck recovery could trigger data loss. so, it's dangerous. question is... what is the alternative for the user? who is going to repair a filesystem corruption in any other way than fsck? ever? I mean... basically there is

Matt, shouldn't we allow people to do that and confirm they understand the risk on the same prompt ? That is, when detecting such an error occurred, we offer the user to run the manual fsck and have him attend to the critical , possibly involving data loss error by fsck. -- Command-line recovery

2006-09-08 Thread Matt Zimmerman
The reason the system requires that fsck be run manually in this case is that there is the possibility of data loss/corruption during the repair. Where errors can be automatically corrected without this risk, fsck simply corrects them without prompting the user. ** Summary changed: - fsck error
