Message-ID: <20020423210501.GA28270@willow.seitz.com> (raw)
Hello all,
A drive crashed in a RAID1 array today, taking down an IDE bus
and locking the box it was in. ReiserFS is installed on this array.
The box is a Debian woody machine, and was in the middle of running
dpkg.
Files all over the system have been scrabled - replaced with
garbage text, other executables, sections of data files. There doesn't
seem to be a pattern to the file corruption. There are no messages in
the logs.
Unfortunately, this is a pretty critical box and I need to start
restoring its functionality ASAP. I don't really have time to debug the
problem. I've extracted the filesystem metadata and put it up at
http://willow.seitz.com/~ross/metadata.bz2 if anyone thinks there would
be relevant information.
The machine is an AMD-K6-2/500 with 168M of RAM. It's running
2.4.17 over RAID1. The operating system is Debian woody - other than
this disk failure, the machine has been rock solid.
