FSCK You can use the files in this directory to perform manual file system checks. Download all files to a directory on your DNS-323 (e.g. /mnt/HD_a2/fsck), then open a telnet connection to boot the kernel and ramdisk: telnet bob cd /mnt/HD_a2/fsck ./reload.sh zImage-2.6.12.6_huge s-initramfs.gz nomount Booting the new kernel will take a few seconds, and the telnet connection is aborted (press Enter and wait a few seconds). Open a new telnet connection. "uname -a" will now show the new kernel version "2.6.12.6-arm1_huge". "mount" should not list /dev/sda2 or /dev/sdb2. Check that swap has been activated (e2fsck will not work without swap). Run "free" and look at the "swap" line. The "total" column must be non-zero. If you're using RAID, you need to set it up now. mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sd[ab]2 For further details, see: http://forum.dsmg600.info/p17947-Yesterday-16%3A50%3A44.html#p17947 (Note that for RAID, you should check /dev/md0 instead of /dev/sda2 or /dev/sdb2.) Finally, check file systems (it's sda2 and sdb2 for "two separate disks" mode): e2fsck /dev/sda2 e2fsck /dev/sdb2 This takes some time. e2fsck will ask for lost+found: /lost+found not found. Create? Just press Enter. Answering "n" is ok as well, but e2fsck will tell you that your "Filesystem still has errors" at the end. When done, run: reboot
