[arch-general] An amazing disk problem !
Hi, I'm having an amazing disk problem. My disk has LVM configured. /home and swap sits on LVM, while / is direct. USELVM=yes is enabled in /etc/rc.conf and also it is there in mkinitcpio.conf The problem is that, sometimes when I boot, fsck complains that it wasn't able to find a ext2 superblock, and drops me to a sulogin shell. Now if I run fsck -vyf /home, it works. Even if fsck isn't run, it mounts properly using the command mount /home. Now again when I restart, it will say the same thing or boot properly (seems like a random choice :D). At last fed up, I issued the following commands at the sulogin shell: mount -o remount,rw / hostname Linux (yeah that's my hostname) mount /home init 5 And it worked successfully. Any ideas about this AMAZING problem ??!?!? -- Nilesh Govindarajan Site & Server Administrator www.itech7.com मेरा भारत महान ! मम भारत: महत्तम भवतु !
