 |
|
Hi!
I'm having trouble with my root partition with reiserfs on it. By mistake I managed to fill it to the last byte and right after that it got broken. The problem is that reiserfsck can't fix the partition because: | Code: | # reiserfsck --rebuild-tree /dev/hda5
/* A LOT OF WARNINGS AND OTHER CRAP */
PASS 0 - starts and ends normally
PASS 1 (will try to insert 2449 leaves):
####### PASS 1 #######
Looking for allocable blocks .. finished
0%....20%....40%....60%....80%....Not enough allocable blocks, checking bitmap...there are 1 allocable blocks, btw
out of disk space
Aborted |
I can't mount the partition to copy the data and I really want to have that data (all the conifg files :/). I'd appreciate any help given.
Thank you!

This looks bad. Did you run | Code: | | reiserfsck --fix-fixable |
before | Code: | | reiserfsck --rebuild-tree |
?
The latter option sets the root node to -1 and makes it unmountable (See http://www.namesys.com/faq.html#rebuild-tree for details). You should only run --rebuild-tree if anything else fails.
Maybe give --fix-fixable a try and see if it helps. Make sure that you always have the latest version of reiserfsprogs installed.
I am sorry that I can't give any better advice. Good luck! |

& if it's not a really big partition, 1st make backup of it with dd NOW before it's too late
