Re: [Bug 106782] Re: checkfs fsck command options don't work with fsck.jfs at boot

[Jeremy Boden]

Robert,

I went through your suggestions - and /etc/blkid.tab was definitely wrong.
I've since run the blkid command to rebuild this file since it is described
as a cache file.
However, references to /dev/mapper (which was removed) would indicate that
it isn't actually rebuilt.
I think porttions of evms (libraries anyway) still lurk on my system - I
going to remove them when I move up to Gutsy.

So I ran (heart in mouth):-

sudo blkid -c /dev/null -w /etc/blkid.tab

This looked OK (at least there were no /dev/mapper entries...

I did a fsck reboot to see what happened - OK.
I have done several reboots (recovery/normal) in every case - it now
works!
Looking at the blkid.tab, it's not quite right :-
It shows me as having a sdb8 reiserfs partion - I don't have any such
partition
It also shows sda3 (the extended partition) as being reiserfs.
However, because it works, I shall let sleeping dogs lie...

For your entertainment I've attached blkid.tab (the current one) and
blkid.tab.old (the cause of the trouble).

Thankyou for all your help - those nasty error messages are all gone now.
I've also got some great bash scripts to decode in the future.

Regards,
Jeremy

 The error could be in a number of places: fsck, blkid,
 fsck.{jfs,reiserfs}, some place else.

 Some things to try with example code:

 - look at  /etc/rcS.d/S30checkfs.sh
   lexx -iX /etc/rcS.d/S30checkfs.sh

 - run an strace on fsck
   strace fsck -C -R -A -a  /tmp/fsck.trace.txt

 - query UUIDs using blkid:
   awk '/UUID/ {print $1}' /etc/fstab | xargs -n 1 blkid -t

 - run fsck.* using UUID
   awk '/UUID/  /ext3/ {print $1}' /etc/fstab | xargs -n 1 fsck.ext3

 - look at /etc/blkid.tab for UUID entries
   cat /etc/blkid.tab

Confirmed:- I only get limited log.
I have two ReiserFS file systems; these are the only two to fail
