More information... built jfsutils v1.1.8... noticed the read of the "fileset superinode extension" was failing... that lead me to apply this patch...
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=10804079 and the following debug stmt... s5n06.hep(rader): diff -rcs fsckmeta.c.orig fsckmeta.c [...] *************** *** 1394,1399 **** --- 1397,1403 ---- } if (intermed_rc != FSCK_OK) { /* can't get the inode */ + printf("SRDEBUG: inode_get() root directory inode returned %d\n", intermed_rc); vfm_rc = FSCK_CANTREADFSRTDR; goto vfm_exit; } and now it looks like the "root directory inode" is not readable. Output follows my sig. Any advice will be sincerely appreciated. steve - - - systems & network manager high energy physics university of wisconsin s5n06.hep(rader): sudo ./jfs_fsck -d -f /dev/sda1 ./jfs_fsck version 1.1.8, 03-May-2005 processing started: 6/20/2005 11.53.0 The current device is: /dev/sda1 [xchkdsk.c:1555] Open(...READ/WRITE EXCLUSIVE...) returned rc = 0 [fsckpfs.c:3227] Primary superblock is valid.
