boot into Rescue mode: boot from CD, then "linux rescue" answer no when asked to try and mount filesystems.
then run: fdisk -l /dev/sda (find out what partitions you have) fsck /dev/sda1 (check the first partition) fsck /dev/sda2 (check the second partition) Paul ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Croonenberg" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, June 3, 2010 11:25:45 AM Subject: Re: dell 2850 initrd problem. is it a good idea to run fsck from the rescue cd first? do something like fsck -v -y /dev/... (what ever the device is) or should I just use mkinitrd, and keep my fingers crossed it will create all the missing stuff again. (I might need fsck, because, as I mentioned, I saw some messages about an unclean shutdown, well.. it crashed with a kernel panic) _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
