Hello,

How do you get an XFS drive mounted when it doesn't want to?

I had two storage drive running rieserfs. I reformatted them to XFS through the Mandrake Control Center. It asked me if I wanted to save my changes to fstab and I said yes. It did and worked wonderfully until I had to shut my equipment down for a passing lightning storm. Now I reboot and can't get the drives to mount. I haven't changed a thing since shutting down.

What do I need to do?



What about creating a mount script and running it from /etc/rc.d/rc.local - so that if you DO have to reboot it will mount without a hitch...ay?


Well this is nice. The response gets to the list before the question.


I can't mount it manually or automatically. I get "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdg1, or too many mounted file systems".

Any further suggestions? I have a lot of data on those drives that I'd really like to keep.
