I was renaming a bunch of directories on a FAT formatted ZIP disk when I got this message: Feb 27 08:14:59 citadel kernel: Filesystem panic (dev 08:04). Feb 27 08:14:59 citadel kernel: FAT error Feb 27 08:14:59 citadel kernel: File system has been set read-only Feb 27 08:14:59 citadel kernel: Directory 2444506: bad FAT Feb 27 08:15:02 citadel kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Feb 27 08:15:02 citadel kernel: 08:04: rw=0, want=113783, limit=98288 Feb 27 08:15:02 citadel kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Feb 27 08:15:02 citadel kernel: 08:04: rw=0, want=113783, limit=98288 Feb 27 08:15:02 citadel kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Feb 27 08:15:02 citadel kernel: 08:04: rw=0, want=113784, limit=98288 ...
I rebooted to windows and ran scandisk, which was able to salvage the files in that directory. I then copies the files to my hard drive and it happened again there.
Feb 27 11:27:22 citadel kernel: Filesystem panic (dev 03:06). Feb 27 11:27:22 citadel kernel: FAT error Feb 27 11:27:22 citadel kernel: File system has been set read-only Feb 27 11:27:22 citadel kernel: Directory 5217249: bad FAT
This is with kernel 2.2.1. Any ideas about what could be happening? I'm pretty sure that the corruption is in the FAT filesystem because the ZIP is SCSI and the hd is IDE.
