Hi,

My computer gave me a message during boot up saying that there were
problems in my root filesystem.  He proceeded to check them and then
suggested that he could fix them but that some data might get lost.  I
pressed "yes" and let him proceed.  During the recovery process some
inodes and segments files seemed to have been identified as lost and
deleted (I do not remember the exact message).  After fixing the problem
the computer booted up normally but now I get messages such as "Can't
write file /var/log/linuxconf/netconf.log"

I am running ext3 journalling filesystem which I thought would record the
location of all my files every 5 sec.  However, data was lost.  Why?!

Can you explain what happened? And should I take any special action?

Thanks,

Andrei



Check to verify that the file exist and check write permissions. If no file then as Root do a :

touch /var/log/netconfig.log

This should set the file in place for writing.
