- Why, in heaven's name, are my two disks not as they should be?
- After a major crash last week, I booted from CD-ROM and rebuilt both
- disks (1.5GB each, / and /users) through the install program that pops up
- when you boot from the HP-UX Install CD-ROM. I did run mediainit on both
- disks and it didn't show ANY problems with either disk..
-
- Reinstalled the system, restored the /users backup tape, and everything
- works fine - or so it would seem. When I run fsck on the root disk,
- it gives problems. fsck -p gives all kinds of problems and ends with
- a REBOOT IMMEDIATELY-type message (reboot -n), which I've done a few times
- now, but the problems don't go away. fsck and fsck -p on the /users disk
- brings up minor problems, but there shouldn't be any.
-
- How can I fix this PERMANENTLY? Nothing is damaged and everything seems
- to be in perfect working order (system/software-wise), but this is starting
- to worry me..
