I was able to solve the problem, it was basically a corrupted NTFS filesystem . I booted into windows and the chkdsk reported errors specifically for this file and it fixed its indexes (or some similar message came). I'm not sure how did I manage to corrupt the ntfs filesystem. The only thing I had done was to delete pagefile.sys and hiberfil.sys files which were taking too much space. -- Thanks - Manish _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
