root@grumbly.UUCP (Superuser) (03/17/90)
I've been having some wierdness with my root filesystem. 1) Last night I suddenely had only 11 inodes according to df. I really had about 10,000. When I fsck'd, it said the problem was fixed, but it still only showed 11 inodes. After reading some books, I tried fsck and as soon as it was done I powered down. I restarted the computer, cleaned the power off mess and I had my 10000 inodes back - everything looked fine. 2) This afternoon, after working fine this morning, when I use df the root filesystem isn't reported - only the /dev/u. But if I use df /dev/root then it reports it ok, but it wont report df /dev/rroot - which is normal?? What is afoot here - I'm paranoid some evil presence is at work in the filesystem. Something that is probably relevant --> I have an intermittent bad cylinder on the hard drive Anybody want to take a stab at this one. I'm running SCO Unix 3.2.1 (Open Desktop ,but this happens in straight unix) Mylex 20 Mhz w/ 80387 8 megs memory Miniscience HH1090 --> /dev/root Miniscribe 3085 --> /dev/u Western Digital 1006 Thank you for your great wisdom
