Even the "fsck /dev/sda1" and "fsck /dev/sdb1" are not reporting anything as being wrong. The issue is not SATA related after all, all drives what were added after FC3 install complain the same error: "/dev/XXX The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try sunning efsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device> fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/XXX" After "yum install kernel" I got it working! Yum installed: kernel-2.6.10-1.741_FC3 |
Description of problem: Somehow the system refuses to mount SATA drives during the bootup, but if to do try it manually then it will not complain a thing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.9-1.667 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC3; 2. Add couple SATA drives to the system after installing the FC3; 3. Modify the /etc/fstab to mount the new drives; 4. Reboot the box; Actual results: Messages about "Unable to find valid ext2 filesystem on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1. If You are sure it is a valid ext2 then try e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sda1 and e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sdb1". Expected results: No errors and mounted drives as I can manually mount these without an issue. Additional info: If to try with the lines it does advice to do: [root@ragana ~]# e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/sda1 e2fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004) e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda1 The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem.
