I then thought perhaps the livecd did not properly unmount the local filesystems, so I issued the umount command. This took approximately three minutes. I then ran an fsck and it appeared fine. However, again on first boot, the kernel issued a slew of errors, mostly about not being able to access /proc (which was there). Then, again, after a reboot, I was OK except that one file /sbin/uname was bad again and needed to be fixed and replaced. I suppose I will try and see if I can tar up the reiser3 partition and restore it in a separate action. If you require additional information, please let me know. -- Peter +++++ Do not reply to this email, it is a spam trap and not monitored.
