Re: "Volume is corrupt, run chkdsk" What's the command?!
Why are you trying to use ntfsfix to repair a NTFS drive? It is not desiged for that purpose, despite its name. The only thing it can do is zero the journal, which is just as likely to cause serious data corruption of nonreverted journaling transactions.

Well, I've talked to people online who have done this very thing, and it worked beautifully....
fsck seems to have stopped, it must take a while eh? I hear nothing and no more enties:
knoppix@Knoppix:~$ chkdsk
bash: chkdsk: command not found
knoppix@Knoppix:~$ fsck
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
knoppix@Knoppix:~$ |

I did an fsck for each hd:
knoppix@Knoppix:~$ fsck /dev/hda1
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
open /dev/hda1:Permission denied
knoppix@Knoppix:~$ fsck /dev/hda2
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
fsck: fsck.ntfs: not found
fsck: Error 2 while executing fsck.ntfs for /dev/hda2
knoppix@Knoppix:~$
NOT GOOD! Any other ideas? |
