RE: [SLE] HELP ! Corrupted file system

Try some of the utilities described here: http://www2.linuxjournal.com/lj-issues/issue33/0193.html Note especially what is said in the Badblocks section. Shortlist here: http://ctdp.tripod.com/os/linux/usersguide/linux_ugmakingfs.html Jostein

===== Original Message From Raymond Fung ===== Dear all,

A partition (e2fs) on my harddisk has corrupted and can no longer be mounted. When I e2fsck it, it reports :

Illegal doubly indirect block found while reading bad block inode This doesn't bode, but I will try to go on ..... Pass 1 : checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Error while scanning inodes(0) : The inode is from a bad block in the inode table

Anyone can suggest a hacking / repair tools to repair or examine the corrupted file system ? I have some important files on it that need to access to. At least I hope I can copy that out !!!

Thanks in advance, Raymond Fung.
