Hello everyone, After a server lost power unexpectedly (read: someone pulled the plug out), on reboot the automatic fsck failed with "UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY" as the message. Running fsck interactively doesn't seem to be able to fix it.. Every time in phase one it says: CANNOT READ: BLK 66322496 UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY CONTINUE? [yn] <press y> THE FOLLOWING DISK SECTORS COULD NOT BE READ: 66322510, and the file system is marked as dirty still.. It isn't the root partition or anything, so I can boot the system and mount it read only but I can't repair the damage.. Any ideas on what I could try to fix this? Thanks!
