Hello! I am running Red Hat 9 with a logitech 250GB USB2.0 drive attached. The drive was working fine but when I restart the computer, an error occured during the filesystem check. It actually said that there was no file system. I am certain the filesystem is still there. Does anyone know how to fix this problem or at least get around it? I am getting frustrated!
I am not booting from this drive, but it won't let me boot without the drive either. I added the drive to FSTAB and it automatically checks for and then goes into reboot.
Use the install CD to boot to recovery mode. The root partition should be mounted to /mnt/sysimage. Remove the fstab entry for the drive and reboot.
Is this a data storage or do you have any system directories like /var or /usr on this drive?
