 |
|
hi.
i got the following problem: every time i boot my box, i see an error message like this in the logs:
| Code: | Nov 15 15:12:23 hal XFS mounting filesystem hda3
Nov 15 15:12:23 hal Starting XFS recovery on filesystem: hda3 (dev: hda3)
Nov 15 15:12:23 hal Ending XFS recovery on filesystem: hda3 (dev: hda3)
|
This is not only annoying, this is getting really serious by the time as i had corruptions here and there on the filesystem.
/dev/hda3 is holding my root partition.
When i shut down the box, i see the messages scrolling the screen saying: "Remounting local filesystems readonly..." or something like this and then it is powered down. Obviously, as syslog isn't running at this point anymore, i can't find anything in the logs whether it was cleanly umounted or not. All the other filesystems seem to umount cleanly as i never see any problems with them in the logs.
Can anyone give me a hint how to deal with this?
for reference:
this is my /etc/fstab:
| Code: |
/dev/hda1 /boot ext3 noauto,noatime 1 1
/dev/hda3 / xfs noatime 0 0
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hda4 /home xfs noatime 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/dvd iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro,user 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults

I had a similar annoying problem with ext3. It was after I emerged some new stuff and the halt.sh script in /etc was modified. My ext3 partitions were not being cleanly unmounted. What I ended up doing was copying another box's halt.sh script (that had not been updated) and using it.
I know its a kludge, but you might want to check out your halt.sh...

hm, maybe it's worth it. could you send me yours for reference, perhaps? via private message? because i don't know how to find one which is surely working?
ah, btw, are you at ~x86?
thanks, revo

Unfortunately, I am out of state right now on business. I should be back home this weekend and I'll send it to you then. Sorry...

well, this one looks like mine. but i think i solved the problem.
when it tries to remount, it syncs, syncs, sleep 1 second and kills. i set the sleep time to 4 seconds. now it unmounts cleanly, at least i don't have these messages stating that log has to be replayed at boot.
thanks for your help!
