Dear all,
My system is using following setup:
PC with Intel P4
OS: Mandrake Linux 8.0
10Gb HDD for OS
2x 78GB HDD IBM Deskstar for RAID
3ware Escalade 6200 IDE Raid controller (lives in a PCI slot)
I have a problem:
on bootup I got this message with regards to one HDD connected to the RAID1
Error reading block 8126559
(Attempt to read block from filesystem resultet in short read) while doing inode scan
/dev/sda5: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY;
RUN fsck MANUALLY
(i.e., without -a or -p options)
Failed to check filesystem. Do you want to repair errors?
(beware, you can loose data)
I have managed to start up and ar logged in as root. All my disks are mounted exept
for /dev/sda5.
I have tried e2fsck /dev/sda5 and it runs until block 8126559.
Then it told me
Error on block 8126559 (attempt to read block from filesystem resulted inshort read)
while doing inode scan. Ignore error <y>?
I typed y and it got me one block further. After about 200 y's more it got more
complicated and it asked to fix errors.
I have then done a control+c in order to stop this.
Is there a suggested method of going ahead.
I have had a look at the e2fsck man pages, but I would like some advise on how to
continue.
Many thanks,
Norman
