Hi I have a wierd problem with a partition on my laptop. I have a partition which screwd up resizing (original vista partition) I fdisked the format to linux and then did mkefs and copied a bunch of files over - everything seemed to go well - however when I try to mount I get mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so /sbin/e2fsck /dev/sda2 e2fsck 1.39 (29-May-2006) Couldn't find ext2 superblock, trying backup blocks... /sbin/e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda2 The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device> mount /dev/sda2 /mnt $MFT has invalid magic. Failed to load $MFT: Input/output error Failed to startup volume: Input/output error Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Input/output error NTFS is inconsistent. Run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot it TWICE! The usage of the /f parameter is very IMPORTANT! No modification was made to NTFS by this software. cant understand now (it shouldn't be fscking ntfs) -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
