Im trying get to access /dev/sdb Well, most of the switches enable some very specific data dumps. You can use for sure -l to dump all plugins known to libreiser4 -p to show default profile -t to dump the tree -n <file> to dump all nodes where <file> resides I guess, the tree dump is the most curious data you can get out of that disk. But did you use some released reiser4/progs version when you created filesystem that time? It seems, you've got reiser4 and progs in some inconsistent state. I guess, it is the reason for unexpected fsck behavior that Edward was talking about. By the way, do you have something valuable on that disk? Latest release from sf.net is expected to work out of the box, you could use it to format the disk anew. > Thanks Glenn > > /dev/sdb problem encountered: > ============================ > http://www.spinics.net/lists/reiserfs-devel/msg04665.html > > # which debugfs.reiser4 > > /usr/sbin/debugfs.reiser4 > > # debugfs.reiser4 -V > debugfs.reiser4 1.0.9 > > # debugfs.reiser4 > Usage: debugfs.reiser4 [ options ] FILE > Browsing options: > -k, --cat FILE browses passed file like standard > cat and ls programs. > Print options: > -s, --print-super prints the both super blocks. > -t, --print-tree prints the whole tree. > -j, --print-journal prints journal. > -d, --print-oid prints oid allocator data. > -a, --print-alloc prints block allocator data. > -b, --print-block N prints block by its number. > -n, --print-nodes FILE prints all nodes file lies in. > -i, --print-file FILE prints all items specified file > consists of. > Metadata options: > -P, --pack-metadata fetches filesystem metadata and writes it > to standard output. > -U, --unpack-metadata uses metadata stream from stdandard input > to construct filesystem by it. > Space options: > -O, --occupied-blocks works with occupied blocks only(default). > -F, --free-blocks works with free blocks only. > -W, --whole-partition works with the whole partition. > -B, --bitmap works with blocks marked in the bitmap > only. > Plugins options: > -p, --print-profile prints the plugin profile. > -l, --print-plugins prints known plugins. > -o, --override TYPE=PLUGIN overrides the default plugin of the type > "TYPE" by the plugin "PLUGIN" in the > profile. > Common options: > -?, -h, --help prints program usage. > -V, --version prints current version. > -f, --force makes debugfs to use whole disk, not > -y, --yes assumes an answer 'yes' to all questions. > block device or mounted partition. > > -c, --cache N number of nodes in tree buffer cache > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
