Now that you say it, this is what happend one of the other times, luckily i had done a backup just before i rebooted, so after xfs_repair'ing the partition (the only time i had to repair something for as long as i'm using XFS) i had to restore my home-directory from backup to get my desktop in a usable state again. -- Matthias _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
