#172002 — mount problems

Suddenly I can't mount my 2nd hdd, it's been fine, but after a reboot 
today, I get  I/O  errors trying to mount the two partitions on it with 
this script:
#!/bin/bash

if [ $(whoami) != "root" ]; then
	echo "must be root, bitch"
	exit
else
	mount /media/win7
	mount /media/winhome
	echo "mounted, sir."
fi
ls /media/winhome/
ls /media/win7/
exit

Which worked flawlessly not long ago,
although, I have to say recently I've been able to simply mount these 
partitions in pcmanfm
Definitely something weird going on:
[501][tony.deathstar: media]$ ls -la
ls: cannot access winhome: Input/output error
ls: cannot access myown: Permission denied
ls: cannot access win7: Input/output error
total 16
drwxr-xr-x  7 root root 4096 Sep  5 13:55 .
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Jul  9  2015 ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Oct 13  2012 cardreader
d?????????  ? ?    ?       ?            ? myown
drwx------  3 tony root 4096 Sep 10 13:04 tony
d?????????  ? ?    ?       ?            ? win7
d?????????  ? ?    ?       ?            ? winhome
[502][tony.deathstar: media]$ su

How can I remove these corrupted inodes and redo my mounting stuff?
I do recall there is a way to make it so I can delete them, when I had 
troubles with bad inodes on a server due to improper use of logrotate 
allowing my server to become overloaded with empty logs that were bad 
inodes, but I do not recall what that method is.

Thanks,
Tony

If you are lucky, fsck (or the windows equivalent) will fix this.

If you are less lucky, you need to prepare for a trip to the hard drive
dealer.

The output of dmesg will tell you more.

It is a little. But much less than the source of information I mentioned in
my first mail and that you utterly ignored.

I very much doubt that Linux's fsck will be able to deal with microsoft's
filesystems efficiently.

I very much believe you are completely wrong on that.

I apologize, but, I've never quite figured out what to do with dmesg,
or what to look for in its output, etc..
it really just confuses me...
I saw this: 15.690807] EXT3-fs (sda1): warning: checktime reached, 
running e2fsck is recommended
[   15.722318] EXT3-fs (sda1): using internal journal

and tried to e2fsk /dev/sdb2 and 3, in both cases I got something like this:
ext2fs_check_if_mount: Input/output error while determining whether 
/dev/sdb3 is mounted.
e2fsck: Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sdb3
Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?

AFAIK nothing is doing anything on those partitions since I haven't even 
been able to mount them.

Thanks,
Tony

Looking for places that talk about the device causing problems would be a
good start. Your problems are on /dev/sdb, so why do you bother with lines
about /dev/sda?

> and tried to e2fsk /dev/sdb2

And yet again you did not read part of my previous mail, the one about using
Linux's fsck on microsoft's filesystems.

I have no time to waste writing mails that will not be read. Good luck.

I have no knowlege of what a windows equivalent to fsck would be.
I hardly use that system.
I only even installed it, because for a brief while I was doing some 
work for the State (I work freelance from home) that required windows 
only software (my contacts with the state didn't even know what 
gnu/linux is), and it had to be run on bare metal, not in a virtual 
environment.
Thankfully, I am no longer doing that work.
That system is so slow, stupid and crippled that it's maddening!

I let windows do it's auto-repair thingy, and when I booted back to 
Debian, things looked like maybe they were back to normal. I was able to do:
$ ls -li
total 12
1349304 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep  5 13:55 myown
1357617 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 10  2015 win7
1357619 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 10  2015 winhome

Then I tried do mount them again, and got the I/O error,
and they're back to doing this:
$ ls -li
ls: cannot access winhome: Input/output error
ls: cannot access win7: Input/output error
total 4
1349304 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep  5 13:55 myown
       ? d????????? ? ?    ?       ?            ? win7
       ? d????????? ? ?    ?       ?            ? winhome

I don't get it...

This can't have anything to do with "the microsoft version of fsck",
because the windows disk (which is actually split into two partitions,
one with the win7 system, and one that's just storage) is running fine
when I boot it (for a crippled OS, anyway), and mounting the storage 
partition fine, too.
PLus, I'm having trouble sshfs mounting a remote server running Debian,
which worked fine days ago, now when I try it I get the same I/O errors, 
and wierd inode issues I'm getting with this local hdd.

To confirm.
I booted back to windows and did a chkdsk (I'm assuming this is the 
nearest thing to a Windows approximation of fsck) for both C:// (the 
win7 system and /dev/sdb2) and D:// (storage, /dev/sdb3), and still 
cannot mount either partition on this drive when I come back to my 
Debian system.
The disk itself is fine, the problem is with the debian system somewhere.
Oh, and I have been able to sshfs mount my remote server again, btw

The problem seems to be your system and not the mounted disks with NTFS or any 
remote shares.
shot into the dark:
might be that your root partition is full or ran out of inodes?
df -hi

also start your system using a live cd, e.g. knoppix
 [boot with "knoppix 2" to use only command line] and "fsck /dev/sdxn" where x 
is the letter of the hard disk where your system resides and n is the number 
of the pertinent partition(s).

is your /usr, /var and /tmp on the same partition than your root?

hope that helps to analize the problem further

I had gparted try to check/repair that disk (not mounted anyway, so why 
not?), which failed.
I have posted the output here:

Yes, my Debian system is all on one disk and one partition, even /home.

That is on /dev/sda[n] if I understand correctly?
Do start a Debian Life CD or Knoppix and fsck /dev/sda[n]

Let me ask again to understand the whole picture better:
On which disk does your Debian system reside? On /dev/sda[n] with filesystem of 
ext4 or on /dev/sdb2 with filesystem NTFS?
Do you have a swap partition? On which disk?

Why is /dev/sdb2 NTFS? Do you use it on both Debian and another computer with 
MS-Windows or do you have Win7 installed on the same box as Debian and if so, 
do you dual boot with grub or with the MS-Windows bootloader?

gparted does not seem to be the right tool to solve this problem. Why would 
you resize a partition that gives you problems on a system that is most 
probably the source of the problem?
Again: look from the outside and boot a Life CD...
You may e.g. use Knoppix 7.4.x. That way you need only to download the CD-
image and save yourself the trouble to download a whole DVD-image.

I was able to load a Trisquel mini liveCD up and mount that hdd from 
that system, and recover some of the most important stuff by rsyncing it 
back to the hdd my Jessie is on.
Still, I'd like to understand and amend the problem and be able to mount 
this disk like I used to on the Jessie system.
Since both Windows and Trisquel can mount and access is, the problem 
must be somewhere here in Jessie...
But I have work (with a deadline tomorrow) and am running out of both, 
patience and time for this problem today... will come back to it tomorrow

Thanks,
Tony

Again:
fsck /dev/sda1
fsck /dev/sda6
and keep track of the output
if there are too many errors then you might be better off with
fsck -y /dev/sda1
fsck -y /dev/sda6

if you still run into the same problem -> reinstall your system, it is broken
before you do that test your system drive (sda) with testdisk
