Well it looks like i may just have to accept microsmurfdom. :-). My debian partition has gone and r--ted itself somehow. I shutdown last time using shutdown -r 0 back into win95 then later tried to access it and ouch.
I recieved the following. Attempt to access beyond end of device 08:03:rw=0, want=1939953655, limit=979965 EXT2-fs error (device08:03): ext2_find_entry: bad entry in directory rec_len % 4 !=0-offset=8192, inode=3917106399, rec_len=31559 name_len=17389. Parallelising fsck version 1.10 24 april-97. Newby running Debian 1.3.1 , 2.1Gb UW IBM HDD from Adaptec 2940UW. what happened ,this in fact happened once before but i assumed i screwed up with a utility which supposedly gave acces to linux in win95. This is the 2nd time in 2 months <sigh> i kinda like the system, and am keen to continue, but this is putting me off. It has been running great except for these blowouts ??? . Any advice apreciated. Contemplating my next move. Whether to try again or just stick with ughh. Thanx in advance. John Leget -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
