dumpe2fs /dev/sda| grep superblock that will give you a list of backup superblocks to try. Then try running fsck -b xxxxx /dev/sda Where xxxx is the back up blocks from the first print out. Last edited by The3bl; 05-18-2011 at 04:59 AM.

then you should submit a support ticket to your provider.

Hope you have a back up of the data on the drive. You can try gpart or debugfs on it and hope you can save it.

I think you' got a corrupted file system :-(

dev/sda2 is an LVM partition... you can't run fsck directly on it, rather you would run it on an ext3 volume contained within it.

fastserv, Can you tell me how ?

Posted by The3bl, 05-19-2011, 05:01 AM
Run lvdisplay The try running something like this. fsck /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 I doubt it will make a dif. Only other choice I can think of is to type touch forcefsck Then reboot and pray.
