I've got a friend who has a corrupted his primary partition. He gets an error message when he boots of an invalid superblock suggesting that he run "e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sda1". I know that mke2fs makes several backup copies of the superblock, but I'm unsure of where these are placed. Are they placed in "standard" locations? If so, what are they?
Given that this is a fairly new configuration for him (but still semi-configured), should I suggest a reinstall or is it worth trying to fix it? -- Regards, |Debian GNU/__ o http://www.debian.org . | / / __ _ _ _ _ __ __ Randy | / /__ / / / \// //_// \ \/ / ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | /____/ /_/ /_/\/ /___/ /_/\_\ | ...because lockups are for convicts... |What is or why Linux?
