Need "HELP" Redhat 9 died!!
Goodday.
Current user of Redhat 9. I did a unclean shut down and GOD!!!! I wouldnt boot up. At first i just says that the system encountered a unclean shutdown and forced into an intergrity check. it shows %=========10.8 And just hang for a very long time. So a restart again, it hang again. I restarted a few time and it came to stage with all black screen and wordings i dun understand below CALIBRATING DELAY LOOP....1998.84 BogoMIPS ----------------[cut here]------------------------------- CPU: 0 EIP: 0060:[<c013e1c8>] Not Tainted EFlags:00010206 EIP is at __free_pages_ok [kernel] 0x38 (2.4.20-8) eax: 00000000 ebx:c100dff8 ecx:c100dff8 edx:00000000 esi:000003ff edi:0000000 ebp:00440000 esp:c034df1c dx:0068 es:0068 ss:0068 Process swapper (pid:0, stackpage=C034d0000) Stack: c030.........................

Boot into rescue mode using the first RHL9 installation CD (boot: linux rescue), but don’t search for or mount the RHL9 installation. If you get a screen telling you to run “chroot /mnt/sysimage”, then reboot and start over.
From rescue mode, check the filesystem integrity on each linux partition using fsck (e.g., “fsck -fvt ext2 /dev/hda1" or “fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda1"). If you are not sure about which partitions to look at, then run “fdisk -l”, which will give you a listing of all partitions. You should be able to run “man fsck” and “man fdisk” from rescue mode for more info on the commands. If you are using an ext2 filesystem, then recovery may take a long time, meaning hours. |
OK!
I ran "linux rescue" they ask for my "language" , and next they ask for "location" blah, blah ..... than they says i press return to some SHELL thing? I dun really understand? And what happen is the following sh-2.05b# I guess it is here, that you want me to run the fsck command . sh-2.05b# fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda 40.0GB , 40020664320 bytes 240 heads, 63 sector/tracks, 5169 cylinders Units = cylinder of 15120*512 = 7741440 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 2709 2048008+ 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/hda2 2710 5169 18597600 f Win95 Ext'd(LBA) /dev/hda5 2710 2723 18597600 83 Linux /dev/hda6 2710 2723 18597600 83 Linux /dev/hda7 2710 2723 18597600 83 Linux /dev/hda8 2710 2723 18597600 83 Linux /dev/hda9 2710 2723 10939288+ 83 Linux /dev/hda10 2710 2723 521608+ 83 Linux /dev/hda11 2710 2723 234328+ 83 Linux /dev/hda12 5123 5169 128488+ 83 Linux Disk /dev/hdb 80.0gb 80000000000000bytes 240 heads. 63 Sector/Track . 10337 cylinders Units =cylinders of 15120*512 = 7741440 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb2 1 10337 78147688+ c Win95 FAT32(LBA) Than i ran sh2.05b# fsck -fvt ext3/dev/hda1 fsck 1.32 (09-NOV-2002) WARNING: couldnt open /etc/fstab:No such file or Directory And sh2.05b# fsck -fvt ext2/dev/hda1 fsck 1.32 (09-NOV-2002) WARNING: couldnt open /etc/fstab:No such file or Directory:confused: |

Rescue Mode gives you a command prompt with access to a few commands without mounting your linux installation. Think of it as a Barely-Alive CD linux vs a Live-CD linux like Knoppix. If you have a Knoppix disk, you can use it instead of RHL9 rescue mode to do the repairs.
RHL9 Rescue Mode is somewhat explained in the RHL9 Customization Guide: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/l...mode-boot.html You need to use the correct partitions with fsck like this: fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda5 fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda6 fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda7 fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda8 fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda9 fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda10 fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda11 fsck -fvt ext3 /dev/hda12 The options (-fvt ext3) are “force”, “verbose” and “ext3 filesystem”. |
OK Buddy!

I reboot my PC and it is finallyt working!!!!!!!!
:D I am sincerely greatful. :p I would like to say a "BIG THANK YOU"!!!!!! ;) |
