File System Check Failed

Following a power failure archlinux (64 bit - up to date as of a few days ago)  failed to boot. The file system check failed. I ran e2fsck on all the partitions. Eventually they all passed as clean. But the same problems occurs, the same error message at the same phase of the startup.

This is the second time that this has happened. Last time, about 3 weeks ago, I reinstalled.

Any solution.

Re: File System Check Failed

Did you delete some partition on your original partition scheme or resized? Check your fstab and do a

#fdisk -l

and see if they match...:)

They match. I made no changes to the partitions.

Re: File System Check Failed

UPDATE.

I was previously using Fedora 9. I restored my backup (using dump/restore), using a partition different from the arch partition. The same problem. I did "mkfs.ext3 -cc " on the arch partition and restored the fedora backup to that partition same result. I installed 2 other linux systems. So far they all work.

I concluded that the problem is not Arch or  Fedora but something in the have in common. Its not a disk surface problem.
