Debian Sarge

I'm running Debian Sarge 3.1r1 and it has been working alright until today when I powered up, it came up with an error message: Error 16: Inconsistent File System Architecture. Rebooted several times no luck. Any help would be greatly appericated.

Thanks

Sorry, I have no answers. I ran three straight searchs with(Error 16: Inconsistent File System Architecture) in quotes, alone, +grub, and +Debian and got no results. Any more info you can give us? This will bump it up and maybe we can get some gurus involved.

A simple reinstall of GRUB should fix the problem.

Although you may want to check your harddrive. The last time I had an error 16 or 15 my harddrive had started to fail.

Here is your answer:

Code:

16 : Inconsistent filesystem structure
    This error is returned by the filesystem code to denote an internal error caused by the sanity checks of the filesystem structure on disk not matching what it expects. This is usually caused by a corrupt filesystem or bugs in the code handling it in GRUB.

Look at this for more details:
