Unable to boot into Fedora 21 due to error message below
This is an on going error that I am trying to fix. I am currently unable to boot into Fedora 21. It boots through the Plymouth screen but where it would ususally go to the Log in screen, it brings up a Text screen and reports
EXT4 -fs error device dm-1 ext4 dev sdb Ext4_get_inode _loc (and then the UUID) Critical Medium error It then reports 3 sectors that have critical errors and then reports a bad block number and then goes into a loop, reporting the same thing , over and over again
Yesterday it was reporting this error on a differrent device ( SDC ) which was the SWAP drive which I have removed as it was a physical disk. I created a SWAP FILE and added it to fstab
I have now booted up with the USB Live and have mounted the remaining Hard disks and run fsck -a on them all, including the boot partition and received no report of errors, it just came up and said
fsck from util-linux 2.25.2
I have also got the computer to run a check on the RAM incase it was that but again, no errors are reported
Now, I am at a total loss as to where or What the error actually is. Can anyone help or give ideas as to where to look at this next.
Thank you in advance
Just out of interest, does this sound like a @root Kit@ to anyone ?
Is your harddrive going bad?
