Hi.

I have problem with my xfs partition. Today when I tryed to mounted my
partition I saw error 990.
xfs_repair give me something like this:

Phase 1 - Find and verify superblock...
couldn't verify primary superblocks
- not enough secondary superblocks witch matching geometry !!!

attempting to find secondary superblock...
.......................................................................
.......................................................................
............found candidate secondary superblock...
unable to verify superblock, continuing...
.......................................................................
.......................................................................
Sorry, could not find valid secondary superblock
Exiting now.

Now, I can mount it but ls show that this partition is empty.
However 'cat /dev/hda4' show me all data on partition.

Somebody know what to do?

Patryk Bobak.
