Boot problem: filesystem check of non existing partition
Hey guys and girls,
I have a problem with my new gentoo installation. When I boot, right after "* Checking root filesystem ... ", I get: fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/hba3 One big problem is that I don`t have any hba3 partition (note the b instead of d). So my guess it is a type-error of some sort but I cannot find where. I tried to look for errors in /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab but cannot find any. I tried searching online but I cannot find what I have done wrong. I have done this installation a couple of times before, successfully and never seen this before. I am extreamly thankful for any help I can get!! -- Raphexion |
Boot a Live CD or Rescue CD. Then find out what the partition is e.g. /dev/hda3 and set it so it doesn't get checked:
tune2fs -c 0 /dev/hda3 edit: Also you should check for /etc/forcefsck and rename/remove the file if it exists. I don't know if all distros use /etc/forcefsck but Slackware based distros do. |
