Hi all..... You know how every so often while booting debian, fsck will run? well, last week I noticed that after it ran, it said .3% non contiguous. Today it ran and it said .6% non contiguous. My question is.. why diesn't fsck fix the non contiguous errors it finds?
about a month ago my hard drive failed. before it failed it was dojng this same thing. when debian wouldn't boot any longer, I ran fsck manually and it didn't seem to work.. Not fsck's fault, the hard drive is completely bad. Could this be a sign of another hard drive failure? (it's a different drive, I tossed the old one) or should I just run fsck as root and fix the non contiguous errors? thanks! xucaen
