No, there were no messages before that, but I agree now that it is a hardware error. It started immediately after I started using the chroot, so I assumed it was related. However, in the last two weeks, I've reformatted, stopped using the chroot, removed the bind mounts and the 64-bit kernel, and it is still happening. Sorry for jumping to the wrong conclusion. --Jayen On Tue, Sep 4, 2012 at 9:37 PM, Christian Kujau <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, 23 Aug 2012 at 14:01, Jayen Ashar wrote: >> [609652.499426] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): >> ext4_mb_generate_buddy:739: group 329, 19 clusters in bitmap, 0 in gd >> [609652.499433] Aborting journal on device sda1-8. > > Sorry for the late reply.
