Even though 3.6.19 apparently "succeeded" with its rebuild-tree, 3.6.20 with --check still found errors, so we had to run this with rebuild-tree as well. But that run finished all right, and succeeded in retrieving one additional file, which 3.6.19 hadn't. Many thanks, Alain

Actually, the problem happened with reiserfs-3.6.18-5 (as shipped by SuSE 9.3. and 10.0.). Later, I downloaded 3.6.19 from namesys, and that one already successfully restored the disk (but due to size and slowness of our hardware this took several hours and terminated just now a quarter of an hour ago). Now, we'll first do a backup (yeah, we learned that lesson!), and after that I'll re-run your 3.6.20 and report back (will probably take until next morning, though) Thanks, Alain

fatal "not directory found" error at pass 3a of reiserfsck
We have a corrupted reiserfs filesystem here which can't even be repaired with --rebuid-tree. The error messages happens at pass 3a: Pass 3a (looking for lost dir/files): ### Pass 3a (lost+found pass) # Looking for lost directories: lost+found.c 116 _look_for_lost not directory found Aborted What can we do to retrieve our files? Thanks, Alain
