• Impossible to mount the drive external HARD under Ubuntu Linux - file system damaged and MFT

  I get the following error when I try to mount my external hard drive on my Ubuntu.

  UNABLE TO MOUNT
  Error mounting/dev/sdc1/media/khalibloo/Khalibloo2: command-line ' mount t 'ntfs' o ' uhelper = udisks2, nodev, nosuid, uid is 1000, gid = 1000, ask dm = 0077, fmask = 0177 "" / dev/sdc1 "" / media/khalibloo/Khalibloo2 "' came out with the exit status no lame 13: ntfs_attr_pread_i: ntfs_pread failed: input/output error".
  Cannot read MFT, mft = 6 count = 1 br = - 1: input/output error
  Could not open the FILE_Bitmap inode: input/output error
  Failed to mount ' / dev/sdc1 ': input/output error

  NTFS is incompatible, or there is a hardware failure, or it's a SoftRAID(4)/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows, and then restart Windows twice. Using the /f parameter is very important! If the device is a SoftRAID(4)/FakeRAID then frst activate and mount a different device under the/dev/map/directory, (for example/dev/map/nvidia_eahaabcc1). See the documentation for 'dmraid' for more details.

  It is not mount on windows either: "i/o device error".

  This is a disk with a single partition hard ntfs

  Of course, I tried chkdsk /f. reported several file segments as unreadable, he didn't say if he fixed them or not (apparently not). also tried with the indicator/b.

  ntfsfix reported as corrupted volume.

  TestDisk was able to correct a small error with the partition table by adding the '80' for the active partition indicator (only). TestDisk also confirmed that the boot sector was very good and it corresponded to the backup. However, when you try to repair the MFT, he could not read the MFT. He could not also the list of files on the hard drive. It says file system may be damaged.

  Active @ also shows that the MFT is missing or damaged.

  I tried to replace the USB cable. Has not changed anything. I tried to update the driver. Windows reported that he was already up to date. Yes, the pilot has been activated.

  So, how can I fix the file system? or MFT? or the I/o device error?
  I used the HARD drive for months. This problem started 2 days ago. I also tried to mount it on other computers, without success.

  Hello

  I'm sorry to read about problems with your drive.
  Unfortunately, I think that the question is misplaced a bit as your case appears to be the health of your rather external HARD drive that a specific problem related to Linux.

  To add clips, if the tools you use have failed to fix your drive, then I do not think that a user 'normal' forum will no longer.
  I know it's a fine recommendation and probably just add salt in your wounds: If you really care for files, do a sector backup before doing any file system / partition own modifications.
  The reason is very simple - if the tool you use has made a mistake when judging what actions are the right ones, and submit these changes, you move your goal - and fast!
  Instead of repairing, the tool can simply corrupt data even further.
  Any subsequent change aggravates the disorder exponentially.

  Judging by the details in your message, I'm sorry to say that I think your drive is defective, or at least the data is lost.
  Of course some companies will probably be able to restore it, but that normally costs a fortune.

  Unless you are willing to spend astronomical amounts of money on data rescue, so I suggest to accept data loss and look at what you can do with the HARD drive.
  Try to format. No problem, this indicates the drive is defective and must be replaced.

  Sorry for so little help.

• Satellite C660D-178 file system fail to SSD using Linux

  Hello

  I have a reproduction of corruption of file system behavior when you use C660D with disk SSD Kingston SV100S2.

  The level of corruption varies from corruption of the file system individual nodes to complete data loss (no data can be read by testdisk).
  Problem always happen after the restart, not very often, about once in about 2 weeks.
  File system failures produce both after reboot normal and have to reboot (power button).
  Issue took place in 15 Fedora and Ubuntu 11.10 beta1 amd64 x86_64.

  I wonder if it could be a hardware or software problem.
  Same SSD worked without any problem in another laptop.

  Thank you

  Hello

  > I wonder if it could be a hardware or software problem.

  As much as I know the laptop was not equipped with a SSD drive but common SATA HDD.
  Have you noticed that using an old HDD SATA?
  What about the use of Win 7 on this SSD drive? Is it OK?

  To my knowledge, some manufacturers of SSDS offer an update of firmware for own products, maybe you should look for this update.

  Hi, Dr.,

  Volumes that contain file system errors are known as Sales. To indicate that a file system problem has occurred and that the volume is dirty, Windows XP Professional displays a message similar to the following when you try to open, delete, or rename a file or folder by using Microsoft Windows Explorer or the command prompt:

  Autochk runs if the volume is marked as modified.

  If the file system has marked the volume as dirty, Autochk runs the Startup Repair process. Volumes are marked as dirty, when the file system detects an error on the volume. If Autochk detects a dirty volume, it provides a delay of 10 seconds, and then starts the repair process. If you cancel Autochk when a volume is dirty, Autochk tries to run again after a 10 second delay every time the computer is restarted.

  See Chkdsk for all the necessary explanations:

  Run the Dell Diagnostics to check the drive failure.  If the disc is a failure, it must be replaced.

• chkdisk-type of file system is NTFS, the volume is dirty, what it means

  When I turn on my computer, I see the following: file system to check on C: the type of the file system is NTFS, the volume is dirty.  What does that mean?

  A volume can be marked as dirty, if the system underwent a power interruption (power failure, pulling plug, removing the battery, button / stop), abandoned restart or an abnormal termination.  One of these events?

  When XP starts, it automatically checks the bit of impurity on each volume.  You can also tell XP to ignore the bit of impurity on any volume, but this probably isn't a good idea in case there is a real problem that needs to be fixed.  If you have a hard drive where the dirty bit will not be deleted, you could tell XP to check everything just do not.

  If the starting XP detects the volume is dirty, it will automatically run the disk with error correction (chkdsk/p) check and try to fix the problems detected.

  You can check the status of your bit of impurity from a command prompt window.

  To do this, click Start, run and enter in the box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open a command prompt window.

  For example, to query the bit of impurity on drive C, type:

  fsutil dirty query C:

  The sample output:
  Volume c is dirty
  Volume C: is dirty

  You cannot use fsutil or chkntfs from a command prompt to delete the bit of impurity on a volume.

  This does not mean that a disk check is scheduled to run, and you can't cancel what needs to happen in this case because this isn't the problem.

  You also won't solve this problem by editing your registry database - not where is the problem.

  Once a volume is marked as dirty, the only way to clear the dirty bit is to run "chkdsk/r" or "chkdsk/p" when the volume is not in use.  The only way a volume can not be used while XP is just starting to load or from the XP Recovery Console.

  If XP will not run chkdsk correctly when your system restarts or the dirty bit will not erase as it should, you need to look in the Event Viewer log chkdsk and see what is happening and fix it.

  If XP will not always clear the dirty bit, you need to run chkdsk/r of the XP Recovery Console so you can look and see what works and run it again until it works.  If your hard drive fails, you may never be able to clear the dirty bit, in this case, you can also say XP never check the afflicted volume dirty bit.

  Saying XP not to check the bit of impurity on a volume would be risky behavior because there would always be some kind of problem with your hard drive.

  When chkdsk runs automatically restart either because XP thinks he needs to (perhaps your NTFS volume has been marked as dirty) or you have chosen to do the chkdsk command yourself, the results appear in the viewing Application event log.  You should look there for the chkdsk log to see what happened and no problems after running chkdsk.

  To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

  A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

  Click OK to launch the event viewer.

  Search the Application log for an event originally by Winlogon, something like:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Winlogon
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 1001

  The dirty bit fade not until chkdsk /r (or chkdsk/p) tracks clean when the system reboots (as in the example) or when you run chkdsk /r from the XP Recovery Console.

  If for some reason chkdsk will not erase the dirty, you say XP never check the bit of impurity of a player, but that will not set your fault of potentially hard drive, or he could be the player just needs have chkdsk to run on it for some other recoverable error condition.

  A simple power interruption is something that could result in a disc was marked as dirty.

  The event log is where you need to look to see what to do about it.

• 32 file system of Windows xp continues to go corrupt.

  My computer restarts just in itself, but when it restarts it get a message saying it cannot start because the System 32 has been corrupted.

  When you see the message:

  Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or damaged:
  \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM

  This means that the hard disk file system is corrupted and XP cannot find the files needed to load up - he's trying to start, but it cannot find the files needed.

  What DOES mean, is that you need to implement Microsoft KB article KB307545, which is what most of the people tend to want to start when they see the problem.

  They think that's because it's the first thing coming in a Google or Bing search, but is not the problem.  If they take some time to reproduce the problem, understand it and fix a few hundred times (or more), they would never recommend this article once again (for this symptom).

  Here is a link to a thread where you can see how it is easy to solve the problem.

  In this thread, you can see where the engineer of Microsoft Support (probably limited to only understanding Bing and Microsoft KB articles) goes in the WRONG direction...

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_xp-system/after-Windows-restart-and-then-no-configsystem/83d5c57f-9836-4f3a-bec8-04c7d81861d3

  After following my instructions, the user reports:

  now after following your recommendation to use followed by chkdsk /r recovery console command, my system started successfully at first start upward without any error... config/system registry.

  Generally, this problem comes after a power failure, power failure, pressing the power button, restart aborted, abnormal or the battery load - stop while XP is running.  None of this seems familiar?

  Third-party programs can sometimes corruption - as some earlier versions of Norton/Symantec products.  Maybe your program DOD also the origin of the problem.

  It could also be that your DOD cleaner is really delete files for some reason any or do anything else to cause the problem.  If it's true that the files are really missing after cleaning, this DOD program has a problem.

  Can you not use the program for a few days and see if your system "lasts" longer without it?  That's what I suspect.

  It seems that since your screen shot that you are about to enter the XP Recovery Console and it's where you have to fix your immediate without boot problem (a good thing).

  Here part of my itinerary and paste on what to do for your situation and how to use the XP Recovery Console to repair.  You are almost there - just need to know how to react to the Recovery Console...

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be

• Check the file system on C or registry cannont load the hive!

  Ok... I have a Dell Vostro 1510... all of a sudden, I can't on this laptop!  I have Windows XP Professional.  It lights up when I choose to start windows... I am said to be:

  Checking file system on c:

  The type of the file system is NTFS.

  Volume label is System.

  Then, when it starts to run it says: CHKDSK checks the files (step 1 of 3)... it happens to 47% finished and that's all!  It won't do anything else, it just stops!

  If I have to cancel the verification file system I get this message:

  The registry cannot load the hive (file):

  \SystemRoot\System32\Config\System

  or its log or alternation.

  It is damaged, missing, or not accessible in writing.

  I do not have the disks provided with the laptop or I will say that I can not find them... I read a lot of these forums but none I saw helps me!  Because I can not enter and try to run anything!

  Thanks for any help in advance!

  I see you mentioned do not have all the disks with the laptop and maybe it's that he came not with any, because the installation files are likely in a hidden partition.

  but try to borrow a winxp cd and boot with it.

  then in the window settings pitch repair to start the recovery console.

  then at the prompt of disk, run the following >:

   

  Chkdsk /r

  Chkdsk /f

   

  then exit, remove the cd and restart the computer.

   

  the above commands are redundant, but nothing wrong with double controls.

   

  In addition, if you receive a following error on boot sector, then run via the recovery console fixmbr.

  ASUS M50SA laptop, with Vista 32-bit SP2, DVD player read not CD or DVD. A search for Information system reveals that the CD/DVD drive file system cdfs.sys is disabled in startup mode, but also States that error checking is normal and OK State.

  I found the presence of cdfs.sys in windows system32 driver folder

  Is there a way to enable it and that will fix the failure of CD/DVD playback?

  Greetings,

  You can try the new Microsoft FixIt tool available to resolve similar problems with devices disabled CD/DVD which is available here: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/cd_dvd_drive_problems.  Under the difficulty for me article, there is a button, you must click called Microsoft Fix it, and then follow the prompts.

  Answer him back if you try this method and let us know if it is your problem.  It is a relatively new tool and it would be nice to receive feedback on how it works.  There are many secure applets available for further questions.  More information can be found here: http://support.microsoft.com/fixit#tab0.

• R610 SAS6IR with SSD RAID 1 file system Corruption

  Hi all!  I worked on a recurring problem with some Dell R610 servers upgraded with the ruhnning controller SAS6IR a pair of Kingston SSD 256 GB in a RAID1 configuration.  I have 5 of these servers and are all identical and all have the same issue, this is why I'm leaning - point anyway - more than a question of settings rather than material because I swapped around the servers as well as SSDS them has tested in a R710 and the question arises in all R610s but the 710 using the same disks is not the issue.

  Yes, on the real problem: corruption after being shut down the system of files and shut down by the operating system - not power failure or power button.

  I tried to use Ubuntu Linux, RHEL7, Windows Server 2 k 8 and I saw the question in the O/Ss Linux but not Windows - same XenServer worked perfectly after a weekend 4 days, which lends to thinking me it is on Linux.  All appears well in the main bios and 6IR as much as all the disks/RAID volumes and run diagnostics on readers shows that they are all in good health.  I can install and reboot until the cows come home, home and there is no problem.  But when I shut down the system completely (this is a test environment and not yet in in production environment) using the option to stop the operating system and with elegance stops the system and turning off the power, but not to disconnect the supply plug/UPS when I turn back - usually after be closed from one day to the next, but also did the same an hour or similarly - messages just fine and starts the boot sequence.  The matrix RAID and Volume is found, and the operating system starts the startup.  It was then that the system will come to a prompt instead of the graphical interface or will stop with an error of file system corruption saying there are some deleted inodes.  I am trying to download the Dell Diagnostic DVD and let's see what he comes up with, but this issue has been frustrating me for almost 2 months now that I struggle to find what is the cause.

  Any additional information required, please let me know.  Thank you in advance.

  Scott

  I discovered that it was indeed the RAID controllers in the R610.  The particular version of the PERC 6 was not compatible with the Ubuntu kernel and it managed the SSD correctly.  After their replacement by the PERC 6 / i with backup battery, all that survived a weekend stop.  Thanks for all the suggestions and help.

  And completely off the power the computer virtual, trying to has been a complete failure, it generated the following error message

  An error was received from the ESX host turning on VM WIN-APPSERVER (171dde1d-ef89-4751-aba7-9905931d8edf).

  Unable to start the virtual machine.

  Power DiskEarly module has failed.

  Cannot open disk ' / vmfs/volumes/53ac8324-6c2d4c6c-fb05-7845c4f7b900/Upload/Reme-Apps-000001.vmdk ' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

  The system cannot find the specified file

  VMware ESX can not find the virtual disk "/ vmfs/volumes/53ac8324-6c2d4c6c-fb05-7845c4f7b900/Upload/Reme-Apps-000001.vmdk". Check that the path is valid and try again.

  I have seen this before, what I had to do was to change the virtual machine, remove the HARD drive attached, which was INVALID and re-attached the correct VMDK who had the BONES of the VM on it. Poof the virtual machine starts very well.

  The question is...

  #1, why is this happen, how can I avoid, have you seen this?

  #2, I'm looking at the file system where the virtual machine is located and it has created 50 +. VMDK with the following format.  This is the SECOND time it happened to a virtual machine for a snapshot, and I did not yet find a solution. This isn't the list as necessary 'Consolidation'. Anyone know how carefully and correctly clean of these VMDK and why he created over 50 + of them?

  Two virtual disks do not appear to be created on the ESXi host. They have both a createType = "twoGbMaxExtentSparse".

  What you can do is to convert the virtual disks to a supported format using the vmkfstools command line utility. Make sure you have an up-to-date backup (just in case something does not work as expected) and also ensure you have sufficient free disk space on the data store to clone the disks.

  For information on how to convert view KB VMware: cannot power on a virtual machine with few disks mounted. In addition, it is also possible to convert drives from IDE to SCSI using the steps of VMware KB: conversion of a virtual IDE disk to a virtual SCSI disk.

• ESX 3.5 file system?

  Hi... earlier this week, I had a RAID failure, and my whole military machine went down.  I currently work with a data recovery facility to get my VMDK off the disks.  I'm not a VMWare expert, and the recovery people have asked me what kind of ESX 3.5 file system used.  They mentioned XFS... is this correct, or is this something else?  Thanks for your help!

  Right hope, trying to recover the data store that has the vmdk? /

  the data store are VMFS3 format and the BONES of ESX hypervisor type use the ext3 file system as the hypervisor is linux OS.
