next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
My 4.2-release system suddenly crashed with bad blocks on the
ATA drive....
Fsck simply indicates it can't read 3 blocks - but, as I understand
it - bad block mapping is now "gone"... (the assumption being that
any reasonable ATA/IDE drive isn't going to have this problem.)
So - I'd like to at least get the file system mounted so I can
recover what is recoverable... but, fsck will never succeed to
mark the file mountable... (I could simply force the mount, but
that would likely result in a crash again... stifling my recovery
efforts.)
If anyone has pointers to how to go about this - I'd appreciate it!
- Thanks -
