Hi,

Thanks, Helmut

after upgrading a few systems yesterday from 7.1-RELEASE to 7.2-RELEASE on one machine I got the error above. The problem was that After fsck'ing / with the help of the live CD I rebooted the machine but now I got the same problem with /home. How can I avoid such issues (except of not letting the machine crash)? Is there a way to boot at least to single user mode and then run fsck (I was at home, far away from the machine, not funny)?

if there's a problem with home you can change

PermitRoorLogin yes

SY, Marat

in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, restart sshd, login as root, unmount home and fsck it. if you have another machine in there, you can try to make a serial console. or install a ip-kvm extender ;)
