    Hi,

    I just recovered from a hard crash as I was doing nothing special on my
    computer. I managed to come back but believe me, I am still sweating !
    I just need information to try to find what happened.

    What I was doing : editing a file, some web surfing, evolution ,
    downloading a file with Synaptic ... nothing special.

    What happened :
    * Editor : Cannot save my file : Read-only fs !
    * Evolution cannot save also : read-only.
    * Synaptic crash during downloading the new synaptic rpm : Read-only fs
    !

    What I did : Try to open a terminal to check mount/df/log messages -> no
    terminal open.

    Logout (full of nasty messages ..."Cannot save ... blablabla"

    Shutdown : Full of FAILED/FAILED/FAILED

    Reboot : Kernel panic.

    Re-reboot : fsck error ! Have to run it manually.

    I can log as root under #repair system . I can access my datas and copy
    them safely in another place (other disk). No problem for this.

    df showed me /, /boot and /dev/shm all with the same size include
    available size, used size, etc !

    I run e2fsck manually -> Some orphans and some inconsistent datas.
    e2fsck OK

    Re-re-reboot : I am back now after this time a good fsck at boot.

    I checked all my logs ! NOTHING ! I think this is normal if all the fs
    were read-only.

    If anybody had this before, or any explanations to know what happened
    and make me feel better, thanks a lot... anyway, I already feel better
    looking at my intact $HOME ...

    I am ready to investigate but I dont know where ;-)

    Philippe
