OK, got an F15 system that went a bit bonkers. Things were pretty much hung. So, forced a reboot and the fun begins.... The boot process appeared hung with the disk activity light on solid. Booted to rescue mode. On one disk is /boot as well as vg_root. The second disk has vg_home. /boot fsck'd OK and I was able to activate and fsck vg_home. vg_root contains a swap partition as well as / which lvscan shows is 224GB. fsck /dev/vg_root/LogVol01 has resulted a line displaying /dev/mapper/vg_root-LogVol01: recovering journal and the disk activity light is on "solid". I don't believe there to be a HW problem since /boot is on the same disk and checks OK. So, the question is how long should this take? Anyway to see if anything is actually happening/working? Any other suggestions to getting / recovered? -- Beware of a tall blond man with one black shoe. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
