Re: Possible file system corruption?

Hello,

I don't work with ext4 for a while, but maybe I can give a few suggestions.

first of all, I'd suggest you to run `e2fsck -fnv` and attach the whole output
of the command to the e-mail (pastebins are preferred though).

Giving the description, I'd say that you might be trying to run e2fsck in a
different volume/device that you're actually mounting, but well, that's too soon
to say.

have you tried to actually run e2fsck specifying a backup superblock?

cheers
