root filesystem corrupted, can't log in

My potato workstation suffered from a power failure and it seems like the partition holding the root filesystem was damaged. When I boot, fsck forces a check and reports an error about duplicate blocks (I'm sorry that I can't provide the precise error messages, but there is no way to catch them).

Exactly how did you reinstall? Did you recreate everything, or are you trying to reuse parts of a previous installation (e.g. /home)? Many people, including me, have upgraded from Slink to Potato without such a problem. You're not trying to use passwd and group files or /home directories left ov

Sounds like a permissions problem. If you moved your 'dden' directory while logged in as root, it is possible that it is now owned by root and as user dden you dont have access to it. Can you do an `ls -la /home` and email the result? or alternatively you could try this... 1. log in as root 2. c
