fwiw, I've never had a "massive" corruption with ext3 (the only journalled system I've used) but I can currently not boot into my 2.4.18 kernel because fsck.ext3 reports all the superblocks are corrupted. However, the same machine boots 2.4.17 with the same file system without problems. I haven't tracked it down yet. -- derek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
