I had some IDE resets on my /home partition on /dev/hdc3. After backing
up,
I restarted having disabled the loading of VMWare modules, I unmounted
/home
and ran e2fsck on it, and had the following output:
$ e2fsck -f /dev/hdc3
e2fsck 1.17, 26-Oct-1999 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Error reading block 524292 (Attempt to read block from filesystem
resulted in
short read) while doing inode scan. Ignore error<y>?
Responding yes resulted in the same question for each successive block.
This
will repeat reliably with 2.3.41.
Restarting with 2.2.15pre4 presented none of this problems.
I don't have any < 2.3.41 handy. Let me know if I have to unpatch and
retest.
The board is a Tyan Trinity with the VIA chipset. Relevant dmesg output
is

Need any more diagnostics ?
Thanks
