[Bug 83982] Re: Deleting large files corrupts EXT3 file system

[rvjcallanan]

Thanks for quick reply Kyle,

fsck just shows a RED fail during boot check and restarts within 5
seconds, issuing a second fsck proving that it has fixed the problem. I
couldn't find a log. Is there not supposed to be an fsck.log somewhere?

Anyway, I just replicated the problem and, instead of issuing a touch
/forcefsck, I did a manual fsck -f in recovery mode with read-only mount
(I don't know how safe this is or how close this matches a clean fsck in
a pure unmount situation).

Here's what I got...

Pass 1: ...
Pass 2: ...
Pass 3: ...
Pass 4: ...
Pass 5: Checking group summary information

/dev/hda1: ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ******
/dev/hda1: ***** REBOOT LINUX *****
/dev/hda1: 24129/610432 (1.0% non-contiguous), 181696/1220932

I have manually typed this from server screen as accurately as possible.

As I said, this happens with an EXT3 partition but not a REISER (I
didn't check EXT2).

Rgds,

Vincent

You didn't include the error messages fsck returned. Please include
that.
