Re: FSCK of corrupted ext3 filesystem

[Darryl Bond <dbond@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Perhaps, but should I stop it.
It doesn't seem to be thrashing. The box is still quite responsive.

After 8 days it is still working. If I stop it, will I have a mountable filesystem that I can get as much as possible off.
I have ordered some 400G disks to try to get as much as possible.

Regards

I looks like fsck.ext3 has eaten all of your memory. Your system is
probably thrashing. Buy more memory.
