I think your idea of a bug in e2fsck's handling of multiply claimed blocks is the only explanation: Maybe during a corruption long ago a number of multiply claimed blocks existed and where reduced with each reboot. Is this possible? How can this be fixed? > It could be an e2fsck bug, or it could be a hardware issue. In my experience, every time I've tried digging into problems with e2fsck -fy not fixing all problems in a single pass, it's been a hardware problem. That being said, multiply claimed blocks is something that isn't exercised that much, so it's *possible* that it is an e2fsck bug. I really would need a reproducible test case before I could do anything though. -- Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
