Hi My Linux box had problems shutting down when I Ctrl-Alt-Del, so I can boot up in Windows, and now Linux would not boot up. When I boot up, after the message - Running /etc/init.d/boot - I get the error message
hda: read_intr: status=0x59 {DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error} hda: read-intr: error 0x49 {UncorrectableError}, LBAsect=1897876, sector 180244 end_request: I/O dev 03:02 sector 180244 Kernel panic: EXT2-fs panic (device 03:02): ext2_read_inode: unable to read i-node block - inode=21868, block=91022 Before all of this I was in root setting up my ppp connection to my school. I don't think that writing my chat scripts could cause this problems. I tried booting from a boot floopy hoping that I could use fsck, but I still got error message above when I got to Running /etc/init.d/boot. Is this as serious as it looks? Do I have to reformat hda (root dir) all over again and re-install the kernel? I'd really appreciate all the help with this.
