After fscking the root and another ext2 partition, the system got to the big ext3 partition and just went dead. No message, no disk activity, no keyboard response. I powered down and rebooted 2.4.7-ac3 patched with ext3-2.4-0.9.5-247ac3, and that came up ok and recovered the journalled partition. -- | G r e g L o u i s | gpg public key: | | http://www.bgl.nu/~glouis | finger greg@bgl.nu |
