Vito, I would boot into the Debian installer image, exit the setup to get to the shell, and do a mount of your partition to something like "/floppy" or another mount point that the installer image provides. The mount program in the debian installer image will automatically do a repair during the mount that will fix your partition.
I had the problem of it either hanging or powering-off during startup recovery too. I have found that the only work-around is to boot from the installer and run mount. --Guy -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vito Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2006 5:56 PM To: nubus-pmac-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nubus-pmac-users] Re: Kernel 2.4.30 + MediaBay hotplug patches Thanks again. This install finally broke after having been shgutdown one too many times. Now what I get is the boot screen stuck at ext3-fs: INFO recovery required on readonly filesystem. by the way, I had installed the battery manager from debian for gmome and x , perhaps if I hadn't done this the pmu would not have acted up. I'll download the miboot.image to my work computer and home computer in the next day - so that if you need to erase it from the server , you may. and ext3-fs: write access will be enabled during recovery... and ther it hangs. So I am in the market for a larger hard drive and I will probably wiat till I get it till I install again - which I hope is very soon. No, no I didn't mean to imply that there was anything funny about German except perhaps my very poor attempts at schiebing it or spraching it.

The PMU is also the part that is responsible for battery charging. It is always working when any power supply is available. And it is indeed totally independant of any OS. The PMU controls the power to all other devices in the PowerBooks and will turn the system power off if the OS doesn't respond and react the way it expects it to do. I'm currently using a kernel with a PMU driver that I patched in order to prevent these power offs. I have had none so far in one week. I did not use it that often but quite a few hours. You can download the miboot kernel image from my webspace: http://home.vrweb.de/internetzel/miboot.image Please report the results. Tobias P.S.: You're right, I'm German.
