For a filesystem that fails, can you attach the first 10K of the partition?
sudo dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/tmp/10k.data bs=10k count=1 The minix sanity checks are failing: sb = blkid_probe_get_sb(pr, mag, struct minix_super_block); if (!sb || sb->s_imap_blocks == 0 || sb->s_zmap_blocks == 0) return -1; zones = version == 2 ? sb->s_zones : sb->s_nzones; /* sanity checks to be sure that the FS is really minix */ if (sb->s_imap_blocks * MINIX_BLOCK_SIZE * 8 < sb->s_ninodes + 1) return -1; if (sb->s_zmap_blocks * MINIX_BLOCK_SIZE * 8 < zones - sb->s_firstdatazone + 1) return -1; The data overlaps beyond the start of the ext4 blocks group descriptor, so the value of s_ninodes is not obvious to me. struct minix_super_block struct ext4_group_desc uint16_t s_ninodes; /* before the ext4_group_desc */ uint16_t s_nzones; __le32 bg_block_bitmap_lo; /* Blocks bitmap block */ uint16_t s_imap_blocks; uint16_t s_zmap_blocks; __le32 bg_inode_bitmap_lo; /* Inodes bitmap block */ uint16_t s_firstdatazone; uint16_t s_log_zone_size; __le32 bg_inode_table_lo; /* Inodes table block */ uint32_t s_max_size; __le16 bg_free_blocks_count_lo;/* Free blocks count */ uint16_t s_magic; __le16 bg_free_inodes_count_lo;/* Free inodes count */ ... -- mount ext fileystem fails, booting fails, blkid produces no output https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/518582 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
