My hard drive has 9 fixable corruptions. I am taken into single user
and told to run reiserfsck --fix-fixables. I do and it says it is read
only mode, which it isn't but it is the root (/) partition. Starting up
with the SuSE 9.0 DVD takes me to where I am offer the choice of fixing
problems. I run this and it tells me it is repaired, but it isn't. I
think that is because it is the root partition.
I don't have any floppies that will let me boot up with a root ram disk
with the tools to fix the partion. Does anyone know where to get such a
thing or have a better solution.
Appreciate all comments.
Bob
