Due to various instabilities on my machine which I cannot identity: but possibly due to being overclocked; or instabilities in the fglrx ATI driver; or instabilities in ReiserFS, periodically I get some ReiserFS corruption. I keep a lot of backups.
For everything besides /, I can unmount then and run fsck on the partitions. fsck.reiserfs has a couple of options (--fix-fixable) and (--rebuild-tree) that I occasionally need to run. But I can't even do this at all to /, because it's in use. I don't have another linux partition to boot into; and it's probably important to use the latest reiserfstools since I always run the latest kernel. Knoppix has issues with my hardware. Is there some way to unmount /? I saw that if you set the last column in fstab to 1 it is supposed to do a check at boot, but couldn't get that to work. If I had some sort of initrd / ramdisk kernel could I unmount / and work on it? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
