I ran into a similar problem. I didn't get the first error message about
the truncation but the second one I got. What I did then was to mark the
filesystem for fscking (touch /forcefsck) and rebooted the system. When it
came back up it ran through an fsck, but then rebuilt the quota file. In
case you get this to work, could you let me know if you can use the quota
command and if you also get this error message:
quota: Error while getting quota from blabla:(pid1059) for 3369: No such
file or directory
Thanks, nick
