Thanks for the response. I still have a lot to learn and you guys have been great in helping me get this initial system up and running.

Good to hear your filesystem is now clean, you might reboot once again to make sure the filesystem is good. BTW, if the automatic e2fsck repair did not work, here is the manual fallback procedure: -- ## reboot, and quickly when the RUNNIX boot menu appears type "shell" boot: shell ## Wait for a "runnix# " CLI prompt. ## determine the first Linux ext2 partition, usually always /dev/sda2 runnix# findfs LABEL=ASTURW ## using the findfs result, run e2fsck manually, you may want to add -y or -p options runnix# e2fsck /dev/sda2 ## output a list of options for e2fsck runnix# e2fsck Usage: e2fsck [-panyrcdfktvDFV] [-b superblock] [-B blocksize] [-l|-L bad_blocks_file] [-C fd] [-j external_journal] [-E extended-options] [-z undo_file] device Emergency help: -p Automatic repair (no questions) -n Make no changes to the filesystem -y Assume "yes" to all questions -c Check for bad blocks and add them to the badblock list -f Force checking even if filesystem is marked clean -v Be verbose -b superblock Use alternative superblock -B blocksize Force blocksize when looking for superblock -j external_journal Set location of the external journal -l bad_blocks_file Add to badblocks list -L bad_blocks_file Set badblocks list -z undo_file Create an undo file ## Depending on how you initially configured AstLinux, check if you also have a ASTKD partition ## (typically /dev/sda3 if it exists) runnix# findfs LABEL=ASTKD ## If the ASTKD label exists repeat the e2fsck steps above using the ASTKD label partition. ## reboot by issuing "exit" runnix# exit -- Lonnie On Aug 29, 2017, at 7:02 AM, Tim Turpin <ttur...@z-harris.com> wrote: > Never mind.
