Fedora Installation :: Installing Package Kernel-PAE-2.6.33.6-147.fc13.i686 Needs 6MB On The /boot Filesystem
Jul 13, 2010I am running Fedora 13 in VMWare. I tried doing a software update and I get this error message when tring to install the updated kernel:

how to increase the memory space required for installation.
Red Hat / Fedora :: Filesystem Check After Power Outage - WARNING: "Running E2fsck On A Mounted Filesystem May Cause SEVERE Filesystem Damage"
May 18, 2011I am very new to linux, and I have a question regarding the filesystem check (fsck). The power recently went out and when I tried to restart linux the following error appears:
*/dev/sda1 contains file system w/errors, check forced it then goes on to say..
*An error occured during the file system check. Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot when you leave the shell. Give root password for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue) I wasn't sure what to do, but checked some other online forums and they suggested running fsck manually - so I typed in the root password - and used the command, "fsck -A -V ; echo == $? ==" it then gave the following message
*WARNING!!! Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause SEVERE filesystem damage
*Would you like to continue (y/n)
Again, I wasn't sure what to do so i just checked no. I then manually turned off the computer and was prompted at the beginning to press Alt-3. I was brought to another screen and it informed me one of the drives was degraded and suggested rebuilding the array. I tried doing this, but it still brings me back to the original error of, "/dev/sda1 contains file system w/errors, check forced," and the process continues.
Also, when I tried to rebuild the array, I didn't backup any of the data on our home directory before doing this (which was probably a big mistake). After being prompted to type the root password, I was able to give the ls command and look at all the directories...the home directory where our data was stored was empty and I am afraid I may have lost some information. Is there a possibility that data was lost when I was trying to rebuild using the old drives?

General :: What Makes Fuse Different From Kernel Filesystem
Jul 19, 2011I am looking for a way to do deduplication for my Virtual Machines, I found a project called OpenDudup. It looks promising, it says it needs fuse as a dependency. After looking up what fuse is, it left me with another question. What make a file system is user space different from a file system in kernel space?

Jan 13, 2010I am trying to do a fsck on my ext3 partition, but so far failed to let the system come up in single user mode and having the partition mounted read only. It says in the kernel parameter that it is read only (RO) but still mounts it RW. A remount with mount -o remount,ro does not work, since / is always busy. what to do to get a fsck done? I don't want to boot into a rescue system, this should be possible on a running system (like Windows does it, when rebooting)

May 5, 2011I have just tried to update my kernel from 2.6.24.5 to 2.6.39-rc3 on a Slackware 12.1 distribution. I have successfully updated the kernel before, but it was from a newer distribution and newer kernel(Slackware 13.1 and 2.6.33.4). After I updated and rebooted, I got the following error:

Ubuntu Installation :: Inconsistent Filesystem Structure After Kernel Upgrade
Nov 20, 2010I can't boot the 2.6.35-22 kernel, since I get the "Error 16: Inconsistent filesystem structure" every time. However, the previous kernel I have installed, 2.6.32-25, is booting without a problem, so I'm forced to use that until this problem is solved. What can I do?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Kernel Panic When Trying To Create Filesystem On SATA Drive?
Jan 7, 2010I'm trying to install Linux on a system.
Seagate Barracuda 160.0G SATA drives x 2
Asus P5K-E WiFi motherboard
Intel ICH9R chipset
JMicron JMB363 PATA / SATA RAID controller
I've tried to install both Debian 5.0.3 and Gentoo 10.1 (Minimal).The Gentoo distro kernel is 2.6.31. I honestly didn't check to see what version the Debian distro is using. With both distributions, I get a kernel panic as soon as I try to create the filesystem. I can see the drives just fine, and can partition them. The problem doesn't happen until I try to create a filesystem. I've tried configuring my SATA drives in the BIOS as IDE and as RAID. kernel support for SATA drives is at least three years old, so I have to believe that SATA support has become ubiquitous, but obviously I'm missing something here.
CentOS 5 :: "could Not Find Filesystem /dev/boot " When Upgrade Kernel
Mar 2, 2011I want to upgrade kernel to 2.6..36 from 2.6.18 of CentOS 5.5. The make process is successful but prompt "could not find filesystem /dev/boot " after reboot.
Some articles suggest to edit file .config and set CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 to 'y' and re-make kernel. However, the problem still stand there after reboot again.

General :: Detect Filesystem Type (can't Mount Filesystem Image .img)
Mar 11, 2011I am trying to mount a file image, like this
mount -o loop /tmp/apps.img /media/apps
But I get the following:
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
I try ext3:
mount -o loop /tmp/apps.img /media/apps -t ext3
dmesg says:

I've also tried ext2, vfat etc. How can I detect the filesystem type of apps.img?
Ubuntu :: Finding Filesystem Type/repair Broken Filesystem?
Jul 9, 2010I have a following problem: Recently my drive with Ubuntu 9.4 has mysteriously stopped working, i.e. when I switch the computer on it informs me that GRUB didn't find the filesystem. Well, I suppose it happens.
First, I though it was due to the drive dying, but I popped it in an external enclosure and HDTune told me the drive was fine. Wanting to recover the files on the drive before reinstalling I first tried to mount it in said external enclosure under Windows (I have Win Ext2 driver installed which used to work just fine). This time, however, drive gets assigned a letter but upon opening it Windows popped up an error saying that the drive was not formatted and whether I would like to format it then.
Unfazed by this streak of failures I tried to mount it under Linux but, alas, to no avail. I might have tried every single -t operator under mount command but it still won't budge and let me mount.
General :: External Drive Read Only - WARNING! Running E2fsck On A Mounted Filesystem May Cause SEVERE Filesystem Damage
Mar 24, 2010I've had a look at some similar threads but as I'm very new to linux they're already a bit technical for me. Sorry, this calls for someone with patience. I gather from other threads that disconnecting an external drive without unmounting is a no-no, and this seems to be the likely cause. Now the disk is read only and I'm unable to change any settings through the usual control panel on ubuntu. I'm just not familiar with the terminal instructions. I tried to cut and past a few command lines from other threads but I got some warnings that proceding could damage data. Like this one: WARNING! Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause SEVERE filesystem damage.

View 5 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Mounting A Weird Filesystem?
Nov 23, 2009Following a slight dose of vandalism, I have invested in a security camera system.It is basically a hard drive in a box which connects to a couple of cameras.There is also a USB lead to connect it to a PC, and some software that enables Windows to look at the recordings (I can't get it to work on WINE).I was hoping to simply bypass that, and just look at the drive directly, but it seems from here that the disk "doesn't contain a valid partition table".Obviously, the box thinks it has a valid partition table, else it would not work.I was quite surprised: I had assumed the box would have some kind of cut down Linux based system, but if that were the case, you would expect it to use a recognisable filesystem.
