File System with errors
Hi.
My linux system won't successfully boot as of today (kubuntu) Code:
* Checking root file system... |
i ran fsck, and corrected all the errors, now i get this as a window prompt when i try to log in to kde:
Code:
Could not start kdeinit. Check your installation. |
seems ive fixed my own problem.
apt-get update apt-get install apt-get check apt-get build-dep in case anyone ever comes accross this trying to fix a similar problem, i ran all of the above commands, at least one of them was the solution |
i'm not having the same problem again (regarding kdeinit).. cant fix it this time...

Not Good News
If you have freshly rebooted, been dropped into filesystem repair; you've run an fsck or two that kicked out errors and then finally run a clean fsck; and your files have been toasted, then I'm afraid you are probably looking at a restore or even a reinstall.
There is a know problem with some 64bit mobos where under conditions of high network and disk activity, they just wig out and start scribbling over the hard drive. When in this state the damage doesn't correlate with recent writes, it just seems to spray the disk. It seems to be something to do with IOMMU and/or ACPI. The more recent the kernel version, the less likely it seems to be to happen. Would you please reply with your setup .. mobo, cpu, OS etc Cheers Andy M |
