That's because they overwrote them, then pulled the plug before the new data could be written.
but a journaled file system is specially made to make this harmless. and at the boot ntime, lost operations are "replayed" to correct things. i'm pretty sure xfs do this also. my first demo of reiserfs, somebody managed to remove the plug from the wall during the demo. atm ext2 was launching fsck and reboot took ages, with reiser, only some seconds. the demo was impressive, I could have made this on purpose nif it wouldn't have been an accident :-) jdd NB I remember time when fsck'ing a 20Gb HDD could take one hour :-( -- Jean-Daniel Dodin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
