[opensuse] Directory shown as ?- - - - - - - - - to user_root Group_17897
Hi all, I've a strange problem with a USB HD attached and mounted RW in the root directory as a ext3 partition, root was/is Reiser. This is the listing: LAWS0:~/LAWSServer-USB # ls -l total 1405526773 drwx------ 4 root root 4096 Jan 15 18:12 .Trash-0 ?--------- 40421 root 17897 0 Jul 4 1978 20061207-Backup drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Feb 12 10:01 20070210 What happened to the drwxrwxr-xr-x rights and ownership? It suddenly could not be read anymore when I copied the data from the USB to another mounter Reiser partition. I had to unmount it and remount again. Then the rights and ownership appeared as above. How can I restore the directory on this ext3 partition? Thanx for the help. :-/ Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thanx, it worked to get my data, but the directory structure was destroyed. What can cause such corruption on USB attached ext3 formatted drives? It has never happened with WndBlows' FAT32 before on these external drives. I repartitioned them for Linux with ext3 on one and XFS on the otjer. The XFS seems to be OK, ...still. :-) AL -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I would appreciate if you removed the extra unneeded quotes below...

You probably unplugged it before it was ready. Do you perchance, mount it "nosync", for faster access? If you do, that is the danger. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

You may be right there. I removed the usb unintentionally when it was still mounted. Have to make sure the mount is always sync for these USB's. It's too easy to unplug inadvertently ... :-) Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

And filesystems like reiserfs, xfs (and probably ext3) are very vulnerable in those situations. They keep things in memory, and when they do get trashed, they do it royally... - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
