| 97891 | 2002-11-11 23:15:00 | After all the Hassle of getting my modem to work. I booted to linux yesterday only to find I got a message telling me i have a Corrupt file system, could someone possibly point me in the direction of the relevant Howto, or something in plain english that tells me how to get around this, I don't really mind having to reinstall as I haven't got anything much on there, Mandrake 8.1 Dual boot system thanks in advance |

A solution to it sounds like: www.computing.net Make sure you shutdown linux correctly. Using a journalled filesystem such as ext3 or reiser helps prevent some problems. I'm assuming that your hard drive isn't physically faulty :) |
