I don't know what might have changed to make fsck fail on multiple file systems. Did you rebuild jfsutils? What version are you running? I think gentoo masks the builds newer than 1.1.4, but 1.1.7 is more stable. > The kernel is 2.6.8. I then booted with the Gentoo LiveCD with the idea > to fsck all the filesystems before rebooting.

I really don't know what could have messed up not only your root filesystem, but two others as well. > I don't know it it is enough info to suggest a procedure, if not, I can > boot with the CD and do a fsck from there. One possibility to to try to run jfs_fsck with the flag --omit_journal_replay. I don't know if it would make any progress, or stop in a different spot due to the same error. > BTW, most of my filesystems are LVM2 managed, except / and /boot. /boot > is not a jfs and / is a jfs. /var and /usr are LVM2 managed and jfs and > also failed to fsck. > > THX, > Daniel Savard -- David Kleikamp IBM Linux Technology Center ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
