If this is happening during the boot sequence, most distributions call use the -p option (preen) to fsck/e2fsck. But in preen mode, the duplicate blocks scanning doesn't happen; instead fsck, will stop the boot process and request manual fsck processing. Both Red Hat and Debian do this. So you must be using some other distribution.... *what* distribution are you using? And do you know what options is it is passing to fsck? > So, I tried to use rescue mode and fsck to fix it, but failed. How did it fail? - Ted
