Hello.
I am having a problem with one CentOS 4 box I have installed. It worked perfectly for several days, was used as a gateway on my LAN. After having reached the limit of the disk size by copying stuff from a windows box to a samba shared drive on the centOS box, and after making a reboot, the server didn't come up anymore. Looking at it I was thrown to the repair console and when doing an 'e2fsck /dev/md1' there was the following message: "resize inode not valid".
From there on, I can answer to the repair questions, but after finishing the
filesystem repair, and redoing a filesystem check (after reboot or not) the same error message comes up. I cannot go out of it and the ext3 filesystem (in software raid 1) seems completely mixed up.
Did somebody else have this problem already ? I had a look around the internet and I have seen several people having had this problem these last months. I was using the e2fsck verison 1.35 (current version of CentOS).
Thanks for any help one could provide.

Hello again. I continued to try finding out what to do on that problem. I freed up some memory on the problematic root partition and restarted several times more e2fsck from the repair console. This time the problem seems to be fixed. I could reboot 3 times without problems nor filesystem check.
Thanks anyway and sorry for disturbing.. CentOS rocks !
