Dear ext3 hackers, I'm running a RH 7.2 system with kernel 2.4.18 an a ext3 fs. Yesterday night this machine, which is being tested with a Proxy server (Squid), was accidentally power off (electrical outage). Now, when the system is booted, I have a ext2 'read only' fs; fsck doesn't find any kind of problem (automatic or manually executed: fsck -t ext3 /dev/sdb1). The only fstab option set is: data=writeback. I don't have any reported error from /var/log/messages. I'd like to know (1) why this fs can't be mounted in rw mode, (2) how can I do to repair/mount it in rw mode and (3) why it is being mounted as ext2. Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
