Feb 28, 2010I have been running Ubuntu as my sole OS for about a month now, and aside from Computer Janitor, I have found no drive/fs cleaning tools, or defragging tools. I know this isn't Windoze, but surely there must be a way of maintaining your hard disk. I mean installs/uninstalls must leave detritus, and file moving must cause SOME fragmentation. Are there any apps, systems or methods in place that provide this functionality?
View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Maintenance - Make Changes In Maintenance Mode
May 4, 2010I notice when Linux boots in maintenance mode the filesystem is read-only.
Is there a way to change this, perhaps remounting as writable?
An example of this being a problem is that I was unable to open vi because there were too many session files....
Not to mention it would be nice to actually fix problems....
What are you meant to be able to do if you can't make any changes to the filesystem? What kind of maintenance can be expected?
Ubuntu :: Periodic Maintenance Necessary For System?

Software :: Configurable File Maintenance Programs / Scripts (Logrotate)
Mar 27, 2011Before I start writing my own file maintenance script, maybe one such program/scripts already exist somewhere. Am looking for a file maintenance script/application that is configurable that I can use to process files under certain criteria, for example, removing files that are x-number of days old, gzip'ping files if they are core dumped files, removing files if they are zero-sized files etc. Am not sure logrotate is the solution that am looking for.

General :: Moved File Partitions - File System Check Failed On Fedora, Windows Will Not Boot
Dec 16, 2009my partitioning layout was as follows
Vista Recovery
Windows 7
GRUB
Extended
-->Fedora 12 (ext4)
so, I shrunk my recovery in Windows 7 successfully, and booted into my Fedora 12 live cd to run Gparted, and move the partitions so that the free space could go towards fedora, I did such, and then I couldn't expand the partition to my dismay. Next, I woke up this morning, tried to boot to fedora to run SSH, grub loaded, but when I tried to boot fedora, I got the "File system check failed" error, and when I tried 7, it just went to a blank screen with a single "_" in the top left-hand corner.
Fedora :: Cannot Create Regular File Read Only File System?

Oct 12, 2010I had a hard disk used entirely for data archiving (no os files in there!) and it just failed, so I opened up the PC case and removed it. The problem is that I had set it to be automounted on startup (specified in /etc/fstab), and now when Fedora is loading it outputs an fsck error "cannot find/locate a superblock in /dev/sdb1" (that is the removed drive) and it throws me to a "maintenance terminal". I tried to remove the /dev/sdb1 entry from /etc/fstab, but the system wouldn't let me save the new file because the filesystem was in read-only mode.

May 2, 2010I bought a new SD card which I intend to put some MP3s on - except that I can't write to it because it tells me the destination is Read Only. No-probs thinks I: I'll just reformat it.
"Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot open /dev/mmcblk0p1: Read-only file system"
Various chmod commands all result in Read-only file system. I tried umount then mount commands, but it couldn't find it to mount once I'd unmounted it using the same /media/ file path (I assume it's the only one).
Red Hat :: File System Corruption - Super Block Could Not Be Read Or Don't Describe A Clear Ext2 File System
Jul 12, 2010My Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 with 6x partitions (/, /boot,/home, /usr, /var, /tmp) of 6.0 GB IDE Hardisk was working quite fine. I decided to create LVM on /home and /var partitions but due to some errors occured and I delete the /home partitions. That's why partition table altered. I then delete 4,5,and 6th partitions (/home, /var, /tmp) partitions and now try to create one by one but following error is coming:-

The Super block could not be read or do not describe a clear ext2 file system. E2fsck b 8193 <device> I have tried following commands,but could not successful:- e2fsck -p /dev/hda7 (where hda7 was created but afterthat it was deleted) e2fsck -a /dev/hda7
OpenSUSE Install :: Get A 64 Bit File System To Read 32 Bit File System Drives?
Feb 2, 2010Have just assembled a new computer and thought I would install the 64 bit version of openSUSE 11.2 in a "Windows free zone". After a hiccup or two I have managed to get a system of sorts running but on trying to copy files from my old computer(via a memory stick) it tells me that Vfat is an unknown file system.On my old computer I am running 32 bit openSUSE 11.2 as a dual boot system with Windows XP and have no problems moving files between the two different file systems.Is it possible to get a 64 bit file system to read 32 bit file system drives and if so how do I do it?
View 7 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Copying A File System With Dd?
Nov 26, 2009I want to copy a file system with dd. Most of the forums and how-to's warn that the file system must be unmounted. Otherwise, data could be changing and inconsistent or, at best, there may be open inodes, and the copied file system would need to be recovered the first time it is mounted. However, is it sufficient if the file system is mounted read-only? Or does a file opened with read-only still result in an open inode?
View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Modifying The File System?
Sep 18, 2010How can I become root outside of the terminal? I want to be able to manipulate the file system (i.e. move files, delete files, rename files) in the file viewer GUI (not sure what it's called; I'd say "Windows Explorer" if I were talking about Windows).
Also, how can I manipulate (move, delete, copy, rename) files inside the terminal?
I do understand how to move around (change the working directory) in the terminal, and how to become root in the terminal, and naturally I understand how to move, copy, blah blah blah. I know the basic basics (just letting you know, I'm not the type of person who knows less about computers than a rock does).

Red Hat / Fedora :: File System Best Practices
May 7, 2010I have a script that is tar'ing a directory for backup purposes. I am wondering what the best practices are in Linux for where to move the tar file to.I read the 'Linux File System Hierarchy' pdf, but I didn't find any clear direction on where I should write the tar file to in the local file system.Is it taboo to create a /backups folder because some other location is where best practices say to write a tar file that is being kept for backup purposes?
I am writing the files to the local file system, but then backing the entire server up to tape. So I know that I need to keep the backups on a long term media incase the server goes belly up. Again, I'm just looking for best practices for where to write the back to the local file system for local retention.
