Dear All,
Here I am sending the error msg that come to to the terminal when I attempt to start my
linux redhat 2.4.18-3 system.
cheking file system
/boot clean
/home : clean
/usr :containing file system with errors,check forced
error reading block 35924(attempt to read blocks from filesystem resulted in short read)
usr/ UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY;run fsck MANUALLY.
(i.e. without -a or -p option)]
an error occurred during the file system check
dropping you to system shell.the system will reboot when you leave the
shell.
give root password for maintinace
(or type control d for normal startup)
I tried several options but the problm is that I don't have a boot diskette,
so I cant unmount the usr directory during the pocess.fsck can damage file sys heavily when running in a mounted fs.An option possibly -A(not -a) -R -V(can't remember exactly)tells on invoking that it recquire a terminal to run.i started the bash shell but it is not working in that also.I dont know the name of the device as recquired by command.To force bad block check i don't know the file of bad blocks -c option -l option.File sys is ext3.I am using fsck 1.27.
Please help me to solve the problem.
