It looks like you are using Reiser for the root filesystem - in which case it might be a pain to change the filesystem. I would still consider it though - source a new system disk and put it in tandem with the original disk. Boot the system with a Knoppix CD, format and make new ext3 filesystems on the new disk. Rsync the root filesystem, pus /usr /var etc. filesystems across.
One other tip - if you are getting system services failing to start, calm down and take things logically step by step. Connect a monitor and keyboard to the system. Boot it in single user. Look at the boot log and dmesg - there are no disk errors, right? Test the disk by writing some junk data to /tmp Again no errors, right? Bring up the network interface by hand. Ping some hosts on your network. Finally run 'init 3' in one console window, and in another have a 'tail -f /var/log/messages' running. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
