[Bug 864344] Re: fsck -y leaves problems behind

[Dave Gilbert]

Well in the 1st run it does warn you that something odd happened:

WARNING: PROGRAMMING BUG IN E2FSCK!
	OR SOME BONEHEAD (YOU) IS CHECKING A MOUNTED (LIVE) FILESYSTEM.
inode_link_info[23300069] is 2, inode.i_links_count is 1.  They should be the same!
Inode 23300069 ref count is 1, should be 1.  Fix? yes

so I think after that warning all bets are off - and I can see from your df -h that your /dev/sdg1 isn't mounted,
so it does look like an e2fsck bug it got to that point.

Can I ask what did you do to your fs to get it into this state where the fsck started off with those
errors and can you describe the hardware.

Dave

Title:
  fsck -y leaves problems behind

Status in “e2fsprogs” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Fixing an ext4 file system  required multiple passes.  This is
  counter-intuitive in a program that will sometimes say something to
  the effect that "problems remain" but did not do so this time.
