One of my est3 file systems went into read only mode. Does this usually mean the drive is going bad? When I umounted and the mounted it again it said to run fsck manually. I did but keep getting the Illegal block in inode messages below. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks. Dave. #fsck -v /u02 fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004) e2fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004) Resize inode not valid.
