Thanks I used reiser4progs to check and repair the fs. The weird |
| 17 |
thing is that I had to repeat this on the /var partition, after I |
| 18 |
zero'ed it, reformatted it and reinstalled gentoo on it. O_O |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
How is it possible that the same directory/file gets corrupted again |
| 21 |
after a reinstall? Could it be that gcc has some stealth anti-reiser4 |
| 22 |
fs code that borks it every time! I am really confused with this |
| 23 |
problem. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
PS. Any idea how I could set the partition label to "var" without |
| 26 |
damaging the data on it? I forgot to do that at the time I formatted |
| 27 |
it ... |
