Greetings:
For the second time in a month I got an error message
indicating bad inodes and had to fsck manually.
I've had bad inodes before not long after a failure to load
my PCMCIA modem (which resulted in endless error messages on
boot) and before I knew alt sysrq-r -s -e -i -u -b and had
shut down by shutting down the power. I've had the modem
problem once about a week ago and rebooted with RSEIUB.
Oh yes, and about a week ago I was trying a USB stick and
the machine froze and I did an RSEIUB.
This time the machine froze in KDE, so I did RSEIUB. Upon
rebooting, I got "Inodes that were part of a corrupted orphan linked
list found" and got the suggestion to run fsck manually.
That resulted in "Inode 820174 was part of the orphan inode
link. Fix?" and a few saying the same for some other inodes.
It then asked permission to fix a deleted inode with zero
dtime, clear an unattached zero-length inode, fix inode bitmap
differences, and fix a wrong inodes count for group #50.
Any ideas as to what causes such problems? Is it that PCMCIA
loading problem, my hard drive dying, an OS problem or
a software problem?
