Hi all,
If my memory serves me right, this is the 4th time I've had corrupted
filesystem after using nilfs2 for almost 2 years. With help from the
list, I've managed to recover every time! A big thank you to the
everyone who helped! Let's see if this time I have any luck.
When I first noticed something wrong with the file system, command 'ls
-l' would list some files with outrageously big size, like 20 digits
or something. I don't remember doing any particular task before I
noticed this. So I thought I would just reboot and see if things come
back normal.
After a reboot, the disk failed to mount. That was almost two weeks
ago, and I was using 2.0.20. I didn't do anything further except
backing up the entire disk data.
Today I had a little more time and decided to upgrade to
nilfs2-2.0.21, and still the same. Here is what dmesg showed me when I
mount the file system (after I turned on CONFIG_NILFS_DEBUG and "echo
'-vvv recovery' > /proc/fs/nilfs2/debug_option"):
NILFS nilfs_fill_super: start(silent=0)
NILFS warning: broken superblock. using spare superblock.
NILFS warning: broken superblock. using spare superblock.
NILFS(recovery) nilfs_search_super_root: looking segment

NILFS: get root inode failed
NILFS(segment) nilfs_segctor_thread: segctord exiting.
NILFS nilfs_fill_super: aborted
NILFS put_nilfs: the_nilfs on bdev mmcblk0p1 was freed
Apparently, it was trying to use the spare superblock, but still
couldn't find the root inode.
I also tried the fsck0.niilfs2 utility from nilfs-utils-2.0.18. It
didn't help either. Here is the output:
Super-block:
revision = 2.0
blocksize = 4096
write time = 2011-01-18 23:22:07
indicated log: blocknr = 1088825
segnum = 531, seq = 837256, cno=1787400
Clean FS.
A valid log is pointed to by superblock (No change needed): blocknr = 1088825
segnum = 531, seq = 837256, cno=1787400
creation time = 2011-01-18 23:22:07
I'm pretty clueless on what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
