http://forums.fedoraforum.org – Hello, yesterday I made a backup onto my external harddisk (ext3 formatted) via rsync. After some time it returned Code: rsync: stat "/media/my_harddisk/some/dir/foo.bar" failed: Input/output error (5) rsync error: some files could not be transferred (...) I then unmounted the disk and started fsck to check it. fsck told me, that the file system seems to be corrupt. I restarted fsck in repair mode and it started working. The process looked like this: Code: Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks and sizes Pass 2: Checking directory structure Pass 3: Checking directory connectivi (HowTos)

Hello, everyone. First of all, I'm quite a noob, so ANY help will be.. helpful :)

Yesterday I've updated my openSUSE 11.1 to 11.2 using installation DVD. After that, as system boots, I started to get lines like:

Code: FATAL: Module jbd not found FATAL: Module mbcache not found FATAL: Module ext3 not found and so on with different modules..

Is there any sense in running fsck -N first or should we just use -y right away and get it all over and done with fast?

When we run fsck or e2fsck with the -y option and there are some serious file system problems, it silently unlinks any orphaned files to the lost+found. That's all fine and dandy when there's no big problems, normally no files need to be unlinked and fsck just runs and fixes t

ext2 fs inode error 8 weeks 5 days ago

I got "block bitmap differences" when doing e2fsck. I do e2fsck after i unmount that partition. My question is: what exactly is "bitmap difference".

I'm using rsync to copy some source code. The copied code must not be modified at the destination place, so I set --chmod=u-w flag to make it read-only after copying.

rsync --delete -a --chmod=u-w

First is working well.

I am using Ubuntu 12.04. Initially few days, everything worked fine, but then I started getting a problem quite frequently. After every 2-3 days, the file system becomes read-only. I am unable to save/download anything in the installation drive and the system hangs if I attempt to do so, after which I need to force restart. I have to run fsck in the repair mode to get it fixed.

Is there a way to check the progress of fsck.ext3 under Ubuntu, if I'm logged in remotely?

Obviously the time taken depends on a lot of factors, but if fsck has to option of displaying a progress bar, it should be possible
