I did read the man page and noted the scramble option. In fact, I did save a scrambled image before I recovered my partition but the man page is vague on how the names are (one-way?) ciphered and the e2image.c code had little comments to help explain it so I am not willing to publish my image anywhere. Are there some debugfs type commands you would like me to try on your behalf? Please contact me privately as this is a terrible bug that I think warrants your attention.
I have 2 similar partitions, sda2 and sda3. Both are ext4, exactly the same size, and were created about the same time. I could run fsck fine on sda2, but (the corrupted) sda3 always gave the "device busy" error as above. The 11.04 e2fsprogs_1.41.14_1ubuntu3 does seem pretty much the same as the generic 1.41.14 sources I had already tried so there must be something else unique about the 10.10 kernel/environment? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/711799 Title: e2fsprogs wrongly identifies ext4 as mounted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/e2fsprogs/+bug/711799/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
