Looks like the fsck bug has been stomped! I did a 960G drive this morning, and I'm 90% of the way through a 1.4T drive, both of which have *lots* of files and hard links, and it has *not* hung at 70.1%, and is running at reasonable speed. Thanks to the folks who got this one. I *really* needed to do this, esp. to our backup drives. mark _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
