ext3 is default. I would question the sanity of the person that leaves ext3 out of the kernel. Possible a corrupt partition table?

Had a look on Ubuntu forums, some people have reinstalled Ubuntu after booting from a bootable CD to get around this problem.
That sounds a bit extreme!! What filesystem does ubuntu use by default? Sounds to me like someone released a new kernel without compiling in the appropriate FS support. My solution would be boot from the live CD, mount your root partition, copy over the live CD kernel and initrd.img, then edit grub or lilo to boot from that kernel. After that you should be able to boot normally and go find a newer kernel that works like it should. -- Disclaimer: Any disclaimer attached to this message may be ignored. _______________________________________________ wlug mailing list | wlug(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Unsubscribe: http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/wlug <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
