Just to let you know, I did a cvs checkout of xfs-cmds as described on http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/source.html Then I saved the patch from http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-07/msg00374.html using the "Original" link on hat page. I build a xfs_Repair binary using that, transferred it onto an old KLAX boot cd I had and repaired the XFS root on my laptop. I got 5000 files in lost and found, mostly the whole manpages from my system. Had to reinstall a few packages to restore lost binaries, but that's all. When will that horrible bug be fixed in 2.6.x? -- Ralf Hildebrandt (i.A. des IT-Zentrums) Ralf.Hildebrandt@charite.de Charite - Universitätsmedizin Berlin Tel. +49 (0)30-450 570-155 Gemeinsame Einrichtung von FU- und HU-Berlin Fax. +49 (0)30-450 570-962 IT-Zentrum Standort CBF send no mail to spamtrap@charite.de
