Hi, I am running both FreeBSD and Linux sharing an ext2 /home (on a dedicated disk). Occasionally (say once every month or two), FreeBSD complains on bootup about /home and asks to run fsck on it. Here is a record of what happened last time: 1) I was running FreeBSD day after day for quite some time 2) I rebooted to Linux to check something, no problems so far. 3) Back to FreeBSD, I get the complaint about /home 4) Reboot to Linux, and the boot-time fsck gives me: Inode 51214, i_block is 4, should be 2... Duplicate or bad blocks in use Duplicate blocks found, invoking duplicate block passes /dev/hdc1: Duplicate/bad block(s) in inode 100354 ... /dev/hdc1: Duplicate/bad block(s) in inode 163924 ... ... There are 2 inodes containing duplicate/bad blocks /dev/hdc1: File "SOME_FILE_A" (inode #163924, modified ... Feb 18...) has 1 duplicate block, shared with 2 files /dev/hdc1: <filesystem metadata> /dev/hdc1: "SOME_FILE_B" (inode #100354, modified ... Feb 15 ...) /dev/hdc1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY 5) Running fsck and accepting everything, solves the problem for the time being. Please note, that FILE_A and B are unrelated context-wise and in terms of directory structure wise and modification/creation times, and not always the same 2 that trigger this problem.
