Hi, Last night I downloaded WordPerfect and installed it and configured it and had it working just fine. Everything in the world was just fine... Tonight upon the first re-start since... my system balked at: "/dev/hdc1 contains a file system with errors. Check Forced." "/dev/hdc1 Inode 121398 has illegal block(s)." "UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY run fsck manually" "give password for root for maint or type Control-D for normal restart". fsck said it was "paralleling versions (?) and returned me to a command prompt. In other words - I was unable to get fsck to fix the problem. Is there a switch or something I need to have fsck to fix what has happened? Since I couldn't figure out how to start linux, I booted into Win98. I discovered the hard drive where my "D:" partition and linux live had some funny characters and other weird stuff changed when I tried to look at my Drive D: in windows explorer. I put a .jpeg of what I saw at: http://id.mind.net/~dowd/Temp/drive-d.jpg uh... any ideas of what happened?
