Hi Tim,
Yes, it was running "e2fsck" with stdout redirected to /dev/null so you did not
see it working ... eventually e2fsck will return with a result code if left
long enough.
Good to hear your filesystem is now clean, you might reboot once again to make
sure the filesystem is good.
BTW, if the automatic e2fsck repair did not work, here is the manual fallback
procedure:
--
## reboot, and quickly when the RUNNIX boot menu appears type "shell"
boot: shell
## Wait for a "runnix# " CLI prompt.
## determine the first Linux ext2 partition, usually always /dev/sda2
runnix# findfs LABEL=ASTURW
## using the findfs result, run e2fsck manually, you may want to add -y or -p
options
runnix# e2fsck /dev/sda2
## output a list of options for e2fsck
runnix# e2fsck
Usage: e2fsck [-panyrcdfktvDFV] [-b superblock] [-B blocksize]
[-l|-L bad_blocks_file] [-C fd] [-j external_journal]
[-E extended-options] [-z undo_file] device
Emergency help:
-p Automatic repair (no questions)
-n Make no changes to the filesystem
-y Assume "yes" to all questions
-c Check for bad blocks and add them to the badblock list
-f Force checking even if filesystem is marked clean
-v Be verbose
-b superblock Use alternative superblock
-B blocksize Force blocksize when looking for superblock
-j external_journal Set location of the external journal
-l bad_blocks_file Add to badblocks list
-L bad_blocks_file Set badblocks list
-z undo_file Create an undo file
## Depending on how you initially configured AstLinux, check if you also have a
ASTKD partition
## (typically /dev/sda3 if it exists)
runnix# findfs LABEL=ASTKD
## If the ASTKD label exists repeat the e2fsck steps above using the ASTKD
label partition.
## reboot by issuing "exit"
runnix# exit
