Yes, you could try formatting it with ext2, for example, to see what happens.
"mkfs -c" would help with that.
Here is what I got: #------------------------------------------------------ # mkfs -c /dev/sda mke2fs 1.35 (28-Feb-2004) /dev/sda is entire device, not just one partition! Proceed anyway? (y,n) y Filesystem label= OS type: Linux Block size=1024 (log=0) Fragment size=1024 (log=0) 62992 inodes, 251904 blocks 12595 blocks (5.00%) reserved for the super user First data block=1 31 block groups 8192 blocks per group, 8192 fragments per group 2032 inodes per group Superblock backups stored on blocks: 8193, 24577, 40961, 57345, 73729, 204801, 221185
Checking for bad blocks (read-only test): done Writing inode tables: done Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: done
This filesystem will be automatically checked every 38 mounts or 180 days, whichever comes first. Use tune2fs -c or -i to override. #------------------------------------------------------
Looks like all is fine or am I missing something?
thanks, ->HS
