Yeah, the ext3 journal recovery code in the kernel seems to be buggy. (I use reiserfs on lvm2 and I have never had any problems with that, by the way.) Try this: 1. Boot with a live CD and comment out the line in /etc/fstab on your root partition that refers to /data/repositories, by putting a # at the start of the line. Note down which device corresponds to /data/repositories. 2. Reboot from your hard drive 3. Run fsck /dev/[device noted in step 1] That should sort it. (I'm assuming that one of your live CDs can at least mount your / partition.) -- Robin
