Hello,

ince 10 days ago, I often get fsck error messages while booting. In 2
out of 3 cases, I have to repair manually, and I often need several
tries.
While mounting filesystem during the normal boot process, e . g. after
successfully repairing filesystems, I often get the following message:

Error: ext2_check_blocks_bitmap (device 03.09): Wrong free blocks count
for group 168
stored=7242 counted=7241
Error: ext2_check_blocks_bitmap (device 03.09): Wrong free blocks count
in superblock
stored=xxx counted=xxx-1

(numbers may vary)

This errors mostly arise after significant writing activity on this
partition (mostly /usr). (Since I tried to reinstall Linux several
times, this often was the busiest partition.)
I did not suffer significant loss of data, only xemacs crashed when
attempting to start (segmentation fault).

Windoze 95 on the same disk seems to run (or walk:) normally, although
in my impression, it is even slower and less stable (but I dont know
where to get significant error messages).

I repartitioned, reformatted, reinstalled on different physical regions
of the disk, with always the same result.
I used a minimal Linux system on a ZIP disk and even got a similar fsck
message once, without much writing activity.

My hardware: Tyan Titan Turbo ATX-2 S1573 (Intel TX)
                IBM DHEA 6,4 GB (EIDE) (hda or hdc)
                ZIP ATAPI internal (hdc or hda)
                CD-ROM Lite-on ATAPI 24x internal (hdd or hdb)

Can anone help me ?

Thanks
Andreas
