Reply-to: marco@ll-xn.UUCP (Marco Zelada) We just had a disk crash last night on one of our VAX II/GPX machines. The autoreboot preocedure failled and it asked me to run fsck manually, which I did and got the following: buvlsi5.root % fsck -y -P /dev/rra1h /dev/rra1h: CANNOT READ: BLK 16 /dev/rra1h: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY: RUN fsck MANUALLY buvlsi5.root % fsck -y -P /dev/rra1h ** /dev/rra1h CANNOT READ: BLK 16 CONTINUE? yes buvlsi5.root % fsck -y -b 32 /dev/rra1h ** /dev/rra1h CANNOT READ: BLK 32 CONTINUE? yes buvlsi5.root % icehck /dev/rra1h /dev/rra1h: /dev/rra1h: I/O error bad super block buvlsi5.root % icehck -s dev/rra1h /dev/rra1h: I/O error bad super block buvlsi5.root % dcehck /dev/rra1h /dev/rra1h: read error 16 /dev/rra1h: not a file system At this point I have very little else to do but to put a new file system on and try to recover from tape. I would rather try anything else if possible. Any help on how to fix this would be appreciated. -- Name: Marco Zelada Phone: 617 353 9882 Dept: Electrical & Computer Eng.
