6 Well, I've redone my backup and now my permits and links are fine.
7 I boot with livecd and I'm able to mount /dev/md1 and see data. I do a
8 fsck.ext3 on /dev/md1 and it says fs is clean.
9
10 So, I reboot to normal system and seems to go fine until it looks for
11 root filesystem, then it stopts and fsck.ext3 complains about /dev/md1,
12 it says (aprox, cause it's in spanish) that no file existes when trying
13 to open /dev/md1. then
14 /dev/md1:
15 Superblock could not be read o does not describe a valid ext2 fs
16 correctly. If the device is valid and it contains a ext2 fs (and not a
17 swap, ufs o else), then superblock is corruupted and you could run
18 e2fsck with an alternative superblock:
19 e2fsck -b 8193 device
20
21 What's happening now?
22 boot message says:
23 md: created md1
24 md: bind <hdf3>
25 md: bind <hdh3>
26 md: running: <hdh3><hdf3>
27 raid1: raid set md1 active with 2 outo of 2 mirrors
28
29 so, seems it's fine, isn't it?
30
31 I'm quite lost now... more than yesterday!

33 Cheers,
