Filesystem Error: fsck

I noticed something was up when I realised all my movies on the HDD had vanished, so I ran the filesystem check from vix menu and I get the error

Error:
/dev/sda1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
(i.e., without -a or -p options)

anyone know what can I do to resolve this?

Thanks
 
telnet in to the box, and run fsck manually...
 
You should also unmount the filesystem

telnet to the box then run

umount /media/hdd
fsck /dev/sda1
 
Right well power got cut off today and now I've noticed this has happened again, But this time I am unable to umount the hdd and I get the following:

any suggestions to what could be up?
 
try running "df -h" and "mount", and post the results
 
it's internal harddrive m8, Here are results :

Can you give us the output of 'fdisk -l /dev/sd?' and output of 'dmesg' ?

That's showing that your hdd is not mounted currently... Hence, the reason you are unable to unmount it...
 
Can you give us the output of 'fdisk -l /dev/sd?' and output of 'dmesg' ?

If using the vix image, fdisk is not used. Instead, issue the command "sfdisk -l /dev/sd?". This should give something similar to the following:

Code:
Disk /dev/sda: 30524 cylinders, 64 heads, 32 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 1048576 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

   Device Boot Start     End   #cyls    #blocks   Id  System

If using the vix image, fdisk is not used. Instead, issue the command "sfdisk -l /dev/sd?". This should give something similar to the following:

Code:
Disk /dev/sda: 30524 cylinders, 64 heads, 32 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 1048576 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

This means the disk is there, if the filesystem is a bit more damaged the kernel often refuses to mount it (even if only as read only). You can easily check that by trying to mount it manually.

Code:
mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /media/hdd

If that fails post the message. If it doesnt you have mounted it manually, then unmount it with umount /media/hdd or umount /dev/sda1 . Then run fsck -y /dev/sda1 to try to repair it, the -y will run fsck and answear yes to all questions - if you are paranoid skip -y and answear all questions that appears manually. If VIX still doesnt mount the disk after reboot, and it is clean (that is, its not damaged). You can add an entry/line in /etc/fstab to skip vix's diskmounting logic, i dont know how supported that is ( i do it because i want some extra speed options that vix doesnt add otherwise).

The line should look something as follows:
Code:
/dev/sda1  /media/hdd auto  rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro 0 0

The noatime and nodiratime is a safe performance enhancement - you can skip thoose if you want.

If the disk still doesnt mount on boot, send the output of dmesg directly after you booted the machine, it should contain the info why the disk wasnt mounted.

ok I ran that and here is the result.

root@vuduo:~# mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /media/hdd
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /media/hdd failed: Invalid argument
root@vuduo:~#
 
Either your disk is really messed up or you are running NTFS on a partition marked as being a Linux volume. Do you know what filesystem it ought to contain ? Dont want to give an advice that will mess up your files ...:confused:
 
I'm not sure , I remember formatting the hard drive when got it not sure which system though it was quite a while back then just initialized it and has been working fine up until this.
 
Did you format it with your box or a computer ? Anyway we can see if the disk has reported errors (if it is a hardware failure) by installing smartmontools:
Code:
opkg install smartmontools
smartctl -a /dev/sda

Post the output of 'smartctl -a /dev/sda'

And you might aswell try to mount the file system with 'mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /media/hdd' or if that fails 'mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /media/hdd'
