Hello Hamish: |
31 |
|
32 |
I tracked it down to the script checkroot. The command fsck returns 8 |
33 |
(Operational error) while checking the file system (/dev/md0). I did an |
34 |
ugly hack just to boot the machine. I hard coded (retval=0) just to start |
35 |
the machine and it does. Now, how do I fix this issue of (fsck /dev/md0) |
36 |
returning 8 as supposed to 0? |
37 |
|
38 |
Thanks again, |
