You can fix the filesystem without another bootdisk: - Edit the file /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit - Put the command /sbin/fsck -a /dev/hda1 (or the correct partition instead of hda1) before the line that remount the fs in read-write mode. - Reboot, and the fs will be checked. - After this, you can remove the line added to /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit. I hope this help you. Saludos �scar. -- .-. oo| /`'\ Usuario de Linux Registrado #227443 (\_;/) http://counter.li.org/
