Fedora Boot stuck. Inconsistency; Run FSck

During boot process i get this error.

images 1: Unexpected inconsistency; Run fsck manually withou -a or -p (FAILED)

an error occured during the file system check

can not set terminal process group(-1):

in appropriate ioctl for device

The filesystem size (according to the blocks super block is 61049000)
The physical size of the device is 61048824 block.

Either the superblock or the partition table is likely to be corrupt.

It seems that you have redused the disk through lvreduce without redusing the filse system. is it ?

If yes then please revert the disk size to its earlir.

If you need any further help, please update.

Hi upanwar,
we have a network of 30 fedora's . and one of user's comptuer is doing like this. i didn't do it.
i don't know how it happened. how to fix it.

ASKER

how can i increase the size back or how to fix it. i need to do it as early as possible.

could you please tell me the filesystem type and layout.

ASKER

its ext4 and how to find layout ?

If you have configuration on your systems then give me output of
df -Th

From one of your system

ASKER

Filesystem Type size Used Avail Use% Mount on
/dev/sda1 ext4 40G 6.3G 32G 17% /
/dev/sda3 ext4 40G 6.3G 32G 17% /tmp

Hi upanwar,

when i type cat /etc/fstab on this machine having problem.

one entry for this link is

LABEL=images1 /mnt/images1 ext4 default 1 2

this is the entry from file system which looks like to be changed ?

please help

We can use resize2fs to resize an ext4 file system, ensure that you are using version 1.41.5 or later of resize2fs. Using any earlier version can result in file system corruption.

Could you please tell me the version of resize2fs so that I can send you the exact command to do this.

ASKER

resize2fs ver
resize2fs 1.41.10 (10-Feb-2009)
open: No such file or directory while opening ver

when i run above command, i get above error message.

what exact command would i run to resize it ?

run
resize2fs --version

I need output of fdisk -l and run e2lable for your partitions to get info that which partition is having label=image.

ASKER

out of command told by you

resize2fs --version
resize2fs 1.41.10 (10-Feb-2009)
resize2fs: invalid option -- '-'
Usage: resize2fs [-d debug_flags] [-f] [-F] [-M] [-P] [-p] device [new_size]

Its fine. Now please also give the output of df, fdisk -l and run e2lable.

also run parted command and then type print and give me the output.

I am trying to help you out from this situation thats why I am asking so many things from you. I have not found any option to resize a ext4 filesystem with block size so I am also looking for another workaround to help you.

If you get the detail that which partion is having lable images 1 then just replace the value of <device name> with the device (sda1 or sda2 or any sdax) and execute the below fiven command.

resize2fs /dev/<device name> 61049000

you are good with the version of resize2fs .

please help .its getting on my nerves

Can you give me output of your /etc/fstab file and output of runlevel command.

ASKER

when i do runlevel
it says
unknown

(Repair filesystem) 30 # runlevel
unknown

Ok. No problem, just privide the output of /etc/fstab file.

If you find any enrty for image1 in your fstab file then just comment that line and reboot your box.

Issue should got fixed.

Either boot your system in Rescue mode and fix the issue or boot with Slax or Knoppix to fix your issue.
