It's always a good idea when running e2fsck (aka fsck.ext3) directly and/or on a terminal/console to include as command-line options "-C 0". This will display a progress bar, so you can gauge how it is doing. (0 through 70% is pass 1, which requires scanning the inode table and following all of the indirect blocks.) - Ted _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
