Howdy,
I am using the present stable version of gNewSense. Periodically the
system checks the hard disk for errors at boot time, today when the
system checked the disk (sda7) at boot time, it encountered an error -
it says "duplicate or bad block in use".
I have attached the log file which has the relevant information about
the error - the "checkfs" file in /var/log/fsck
Here is the present situation of my system :
* I boot, the system performs a hard-disk error check.
* The error check encounters an error.
* I am presented with a root shell prompt.
* I hit "Ctrl+D" to get to gdm log-in prompt.
* I log-in.
* The system is fine and I am able to work.
(I am sending this very mail from gNewSense)
So should I re-format my partition that is failing the hard-disk error
check ? I also want to know whether it is fine to use a different
program other than the one I used to previously partition my hard-disk ?
I thank you.
