[SOLVED] Disk check failed at boot.

Hello,

I've got a problem with arch booting. It looks like my cpu doesn't like being left alone fat night. I powered it on today and what I get iss disk check failed error and reboot message. I've tried fsck-ing all partitions and everything seems to be allright. What's more I can mount everything when press ctrl+z when arch tries to reboot and system loading goes on. Any tips? What should I post?

Re: [SOLVED] Disk check failed at boot.

It's not unusual for a filesystem to be fixed during fsck which, in turn, requires a restart. especially if the system was powered off instead of properly halted.

Did this happen just once or does it occur on every boot? What file system is failing (ext2,ext3.....)?


Don't break the silence unless you can improve upon it.

It does happen on every boot.
Gonna post a pic of this boot message, since I don't know how to get to it.

Re: [SOLVED] Disk check failed at boot.

You have some messed up file systems. As if you didn't know.=O)

Have you changed fstab? Switched disks around? Try using uuid in fstab instead of '/dev/sdxx'.

Check this thread http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=89857
and use

ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid

Re: [SOLVED] Disk check failed at boot.

Uuid didn't help, but what helped was removing the line with /dev/sdc, as external usb hd mounted from time to time. What's weird arch never had problems with it before, and now it broke stuff. Can any1 explain why did this happen?
