OK, assuming you're e2fsck-ing because the default boot now doesn't work, have you tried booting the recovery entry, and undoing the /boot/grub/grub.cfg hand-edit, to see if the drive then behaves? > So, on a fairly new toshiba drive, what would be a good superblock > address? NDI, but trying on my little Western Digital 320 GB drive, I get: # dumpe2fs /dev/disk/by-uuid/18cb718f-4e16-4e63-a0cb-eb10a1dc3607 | grep -i superblock dumpe2fs 1.42.5 (29-Jul-2012) Primary superblock at 1, Group descriptors at 2-3 Backup superblock at 8193, Group descriptors at 8194-8195 Backup superblock at 24577, Group descriptors at 24578-24579 Backup superblock at 40961, Group descriptors at 40962-40963 Backup superblock at 57345, Group descriptors at 57346-57347 Backup superblock at 73729, Group descriptors at 73730-73731 Backup superblock at 204801, Group descriptors at 204802-204803 Backup superblock at 221185, Group descriptors at 221186-221187 That's nothing like the old days, when I used to see numbers like: 32768, 98304, 163840, 229376, 294912 You seem to have a fair crop of gremlins, Gene.
