ext2fs_check_desc: Corrupt group descriptor: bad block for inode table Note: if several inode or block bitmap blocks or part of the inode table require relocation, you may wish to try running e2fsck with the '-b 8193' option first. The problem may lie only with the primary block group descriptors, and the backup block group descriptors may be OK. Inode table for group 0 is not in group. (block 40000) WARNING: SEVERE DATA LOSS POSSIBLE. Relocate? yes ../e2fsck/e2fsck: A block group is missing an inode table while reading bad blocks inode This doesn't bode well, but we'll try to go on... Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Relocating group 0's inode table to 7... Restarting e2fsck from the beginning... Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Root inode is not a directory. Clear? yes Pass 2: Checking directory structure Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity Root inode not allocated. Allocate? yes /lost+found not found. Create? yes Pass 4: Checking reference counts Pass 5: Checking group summary information Block bitmap differences: -(11--21) Fix? yes Free blocks count wrong for group #0 (77, counted=89). Fix? yes Free blocks count wrong (77, counted=89). Fix? yes Free inodes count wrong for group #0 (20, counted=21). Fix? yes Directories count wrong for group #0 (3, counted=2).
