Yep. And you still haven't provided the output that you get when you run fsck.s3ql. So there's not much anyone can do to help you.

Re: [s3ql] Cant mount or fsck filesystem
Thanks. I understand. However when I try to mount I get; * ERROR: Backend reports that fs is still mounted elsewhere, abortin*g. I'm 100% sure that is not the case, so that is why i'm trying to fsck.

Re: [s3ql] Cant mount or fsck filesystem
I want to mount the files on the host again. # mkfs.s3ql --authfile=/data/s3ql-authinfo --cachedir=/data/.s3ql s3c://xxx Before using S3QL, make sure to read the user's guide, especially the 'Important Rules to Avoid Losing Data' section. ERROR: Refusing to overwrite existing file system! (use `s3qladm clear` to delete) This is the command and response.
