My /var partition failed to mount this morning with the error "resize inode not valid". I have had no soft or hard crashes that I am aware of and have made no recent changes to the structure and layout of my volumes.
I known nothing about ext3, but googling 'resize inode not valid' returns quite a few hits from the last 2-3 years. Maybe one those will give you a hint.
What I have done so far is basically fsck.ext3 -f on all my volumes from a recovery console, all volumes are reported as clean. I can actually manually mount /var but the system will not boot with /var in fstab.
I believe the only different between those two is that the latter does an fsck before mounting it. The mount command should be the same, and therefore should produce the same result (unless something else changes the state of the filesystem). /Per -- /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
