Hi All, Last night I decided to set up a rsync server on my gentoo server box. I have a partition mounted under /srv, and that was the disk the rsync module was located on. I then proceeded to rsync the contents of my main PC over to the server. I tested the scripts a few times first to ensure that things were working OK, and indeed they were. I then set it running when I went to bed.
This morning I wake up to find the server had crashed and was inaccessible. All processes seemed to have shut down. Rebooting the computer resulted in the reiserfsck being run - and failing!! I have tried reiserfsck --rebuild-tree /dev/hdc6 and I get a complaint that the filesystem could not be rebuilt bread: Cannot read the block (87878789) (Input/Output error) It also suggests (aside from buying a new disk!) to try overwriting the blocks if there are only a few of them. How do I go about doing this?? And does anyone have any other suggestions on how to recover the filesystem? Cheers, -- Ant... -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
