Error <Solved>

any idea what this is or how to fix it.  This keeps popping up ever once in a while.  I don't notice anything to working, but I don't know what it is for.

something is wrong with your file system. What file systems are you using? are you sure you have the right file system set in fstab entry?

can you copy and paste here the contents of the following command? "cat /etc/fstab"

log in to root user from the terminal, type the following command and reboot to repair your file systems if they are corrupted

touch /forcefsck

$ cat /etc/fstab
# Entry for /dev/sda3 :
UUID=9e917600-c9c6-461d-91ad-02462b49906b / ext3 defaults 1 1 none /proc proc defaults 0 0
# Entry for /dev/sda1 :
UUID=36d28d97-46b0-4b29-aa9f-42cfc00187c4 swap swap defaults 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0

now that you say that, I think it started happening right after I installed the pclxd version of pclinuxos.  I let it create a new partition for it, and maybe it messed something up.

UUID=9e917600-c9c6-461d-91ad-02462b49906b / ext3 defaults 1 1 none /proc proc defaults 0 0

the above line does not appear to be in standard form

it should be read:

UUID=9e917600-c9c6-461d-91ad-02462b49906b / ext3 defaults 1 1

and the other one should be

UUID=36d28d97-46b0-4b29-aa9f-42cfc00187c4 swap swap defaults 0 0

those two numeric options should be the last two options

[Texstar]

These need to be on separate lines in /etc/fstab

none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0


So /etc/fstab could read as follows

none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
UUID=9e917600-c9c6-461d-91ad-02462b49906b / ext3 defaults 1 1
UUID=36d28d97-46b0-4b29-aa9f-42cfc00187c4 swap swap defaults 0 0

Thanks.. I have edited my fstab, and run the touch /forcefsck command.

And all seems to be working...

Thanks again..
