Hi. reiserfsck has restored everything I lost but I can only see it in runlevel 1 where /home is totally visible again. Back in runlevel 3 or 5 /home exists but contains no directories and I can't write to it not even as root. I copied /home to /usr in runlevel 1 where it is readable and so burnable to a cd. Question: why should /home be unwritable whilst /usr is? The crash happened during a power failure but I'd like a software answer that we can avoid problems in future. Cheers, Steve.
Which mount options are in effect in runlevel 1 and 3 respectively? Therein lies the answer, methinks. Try "grep home /proc/mounts" once for each runlevel
