Arch Linux ext3 errors
Every once in a while we encounter a problem that can only be fixed from commands. Today I came across this error and wasn't sure what to do. After a while of checking I was sure that I needed a live cd with some special tools on it and I was going to have to get dirty, but in reality this wasn't the case. Please let me know if this solution also works for you.
Inodes that were part of a corrupted linked list found.
Steps to the solution that worked for me:
- Enter in root password.
- Run command: fsck -t ext3 /dev/sda4 *where /dev/sda4 is the partition/drive in question
- Choose yes for all of the following prompts
- When you are given the # prompt again type exit, and the system will reboot.
