hi all, i've installed a gentoo system on a jfs root partition a few days ago ...
basically it works fine, except for one aspect ... if the partition is marked as not clean, the computer refuses to boot ... i have to boot from a live cd to run jfs_fsck ... my partitions are: /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 /dev/hda2 swap /dev/hda3 / jfs if the partition is not cleanly umounted, it will post this, when trying to mount the partition: >> Mounting filesystems... Started device management daemon v1.3.5 for /dev >> Determining root device... >> Mounting root... mount: Mounting /dev/hda3 on /newroot failed: Invalid argument >> Could not mount specified ROOT, try again >> The root block device is unspecified or not detected. Please specify a device to boot, or "shell" for a shell... is there any way to mount a dirty partition readonly on / to run jfs_fsck without the use of a livecd? thanks in advance ... tim -- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 96771783 http://www.mokabar.tk latest mp3: kMW.mp3 http://mattin.org/mp3.html latest cd: Goh Lee Kwang & Tim Blechmann: Drone http://www.geocities.com/gohleekwangtimblechmannduo/ After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say "I want to see the manager."
