Hi,
I know this might not be the right place to ask, but here's
what concerns me:
I am using SuSE 10.1 and my / partition is formated with
reiserfs. If for some
reason my system is unable to shut down properly (e.g.
something hangs badly
and I have to reset, or even if I reset when nothing has
gone bad, with
little things running and no heavy disc usage), Grub fails
to load when the
PC boots. It hangs at "Grub loading, please
wait..."
If I boot a live CD, it replays the reiserfs' journals and
then Grub starts
just fine.
Any ideas how I can fix this? Maybe have Grub located on a
nother partition?
Why is it so bad if some transactions are not complete? This
renders my
system unbootable (?!?), and doesn't seem right on a Linux
box, proud that is
stable and kicking.
Is there a way to replay my file system's journals quicker
than launching a
Live CD? The only thing that comes to my mind now is set up
a small system on
separate partition, and boot it only to replay my main
system's journals. But
this sounds like quite a nasty work-around to me.
Thanks
