How do I get reiserfsck to fix this problem? (the only reiserfsck option I haven't tried yet is --rebuild-tree). Or do I now only have the dd_rescue option left (which I have never used) :-( ?
I have heard that reiserfsck is essentially a NOP (does nothing) and that you need to run reiser-repair or somesuch. I don't use reiser at all so I may be off base. Maybe someone else can answer.
AFAIK, that is correct.. reiserfsck without any parameters simply replays the journal and does some simple consistency checking. Running "fsck -A" (which I believe is what is run during bootup) against a reiserfs partition doesn't do much more either.
