What write operations were you performing at the time you pulled the plug? Unless you were writing the superblock it'd be almost impossible to hose the filesystem to the point it couldn't mount. Were you doing a resize operation when you pulled the plug? xfs_growfs? As far as recovery, it's automatic upon mounting the XFS filesystem. What do you mean, precisely, by "couldn't *recover* the / fs"? And apologies if my tone seemed rude. I'm basically a one man army trying to defeat misinformation WRT XFS and attempt to educate ppl with the correct information. I guess I'm feeling outnumbered and thus being more aggressive. Again, apologies. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
