If it's corrupted, you can try: e2fsck -b 8193 -c /dev/device -b 8193 tells it to use a different copy of the superblock, if the drive has seriously bad blocks at the beginning of the disk, this can help e2fsck realize that it is an ext2 filesystem. -c tells it to do a bad block scan. ============================================================= Avenir Web's Linux Discussion List List info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/webpage?webpage_id=13 To unsubscribe: email linux-discussion-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject line.
