I'm fixing it using mkreiserfs now. If such a bug persists with the latest released e2fsck version - you're not showing e2fsck logs - I'm rather sure Ted Ts'o would like to have a look at your file system meta data in order to teach e2fsck how to fix this. I've seen sufficient releases of reiserfsck that couldn't fix certain bugs, too, so trying with the latest version of the respective tools is a must. -- Matthias Andree - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
