I've been having file system corruption on a system with two Maxtor 120GB drives (Maxtor 4G120J6). Alan Cox suggested errors in the PDC20262 (Promise ATA66 controller) - but your posting here suggests that there is something fishy with the Maxtor drives and kernels > 2.4.18 (on my system, 2.4.18 runs fine - everything else eats my data). When your neverending fsck ends, try 2.4.18. You might want to report this on lkml. -- Per Andreas Buer _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
