Disable fsck for that file system then google for online/delayed/background fsck script. The script will take an LVM snapshot and fsck the snapshot and only if it finds a problem with the snapshot will it email the operator and set the file system to be fsck'ed on the next reboot. When it finishes it deletes the snapshot. This will allow your system to come up right away. Performance will decline during this, but it's better than inaccessible. -Ross _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
