Hi all folks,
I encountered problem in rebooting Gentoo 1.4 after running
# emerge -u world
IIRC the last item updated is "betagenkernel...."
During rebooting following warning popup;
...... ........ Checking all filesystems... fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while tryinng to open /dev/BOOT /dev/BOOT: The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck - b 8193 <device>
* Fsck could not correct all errors, manual repair need
Give root password for maintaince (or type Control-D for normal startup):
No root password is required to enter. If typing in root password I can't enter, following warning popup; Login incorrect
It is rather strange
Tried; # fsck /dev/hda # fsck /dev/hda1 # fsck /dev/hda3 etc.
fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while tryinng to open /dev/hda ...... /dev/hda1 ....../dev/hda3 etc.
(remark: harddrive is connected to a ATA controller card) IIRC Gentoo is running on 'reiser fs' . How to check it.
Furthermore 'reboot' (soft) has no effect. I have to press hard-reboot (reset button)
Kindly advise how to fix the problem.
TIA

Stephen, When you ran etc-update after your emerge -u world, you overwrote your /etc/fstab. You will need to boot the live CD and chroot into your Gentoo and recreate the file.
Hi Ernie,
Thanks for your response. I have not ran 'etc-update' in this test.
I ran
# emerge -u world
ending up with following warning and exited 'emerge -u world'

This warning appeared before and I could not fixed it (I have posted this problem on Gentoo forum but without a solution)
I ran '# emerge -u world' on Konsole window. Login as USER on KDE desktop first, started Konsole window and then 'su -' as ROOT
I rebooted on Konsole window but could not start Gentoo. As I recalled, before rebooting, I tried to start another Konsole window on KDE desktop, it popup 'hostname not found......' and I could not 'su -'
