Check if the hard disk has bad blocks. # badblocks -b <ext3blocksize> <ext3device> If you have errors here, than ask again what to do in this list - I don't know how to recover from errors like bad blocks in the journal ;-) Assuming badblocks didn't report any errors, continue: 2. Umount the filesystem 3. Run e2fsck If that fails, report it here and don't continue ;-) 4. Try to remount the filesystem as ext3. If that works, you should be done. 5. If that doesn't work then: Report the error messages here. You may continue or wait for answers ... 6. disable usage of journal: tune2fs -O ^has_journal <ext3device> 7. mount the file system as ext2 and update /etc/fstab according to that.
