I had a crash in XFree that forced me to reboot the hard way.
At boot, I had many messages saying that dup2 could not work and /dev/null was
on a readonly fs (I have not activated devfs).
Then, I was told my fs was corrupted and drop to a shell.
After fscking all my partitions (all of them in ext3), I rebooted and the
problem persisted. It appeared with my 3 different kernels (vanilla 2.4.17,
2.4.18-23mdk and 2.4.19-6-mdkcustom), and with or without initrd.
As I knew my filesystems were clean, I finally got the machine flying by
putting rc=0 after fs checks in rc.sysinit so the script should not stop on
these reports.
Everything works fine now, but I'm pretty sure the problem will be back at
next boot.
My config is not an installed cooker, it's an 8.2 upgraded to cooker on a
daily basis via drakupdaterobot. It's a laptop with a working hibernation, so
I never reboot it without reasons. My uptime was of 17 days at the time of
the crash. I add this to put a limit on the appearance of the problem.
Is it something known ? I made some search on the list and didn't found
anything related.
