- Hello there
-
- I have a big problem on my HPFS bot partition. I think it happened in the
- moment when my Adaptec 1542B died. I got a new one but now on
- "CHKDSK D: /f:3" I get the following messasge as often as I do the CHKDSK:
-
- chkdsk d: /f:3
- the type of file system for the disk is HPFS.
- The HPFS file system program has been started.
- CHKDSK found and corrected a minor file system error.
- CHKDSK corrected an allocation error for the file \OS2\os2.ini.
- CHKDSK is searching disk space that is not allocated.
- CHKDSK has searched 100% of the disk.
-
- 140272 kilobytes total disk space.
- 227 kilobytes in 192 directories.
- 131825 k in 2401 user files.
- 1 kilobyte in bad blocks.
- 570 k in ea's
- 3431 k res. for sys use
- 4218 k available
-
- So it look, as if the error has been corrected. But if I try to boot or
- try to copy the OS2.INI to an other name I get:
-
- The system detected an internal processing
- error at location ##0f00:131e - 002:131e
- 65535, 9051
- CPS: Extend not found. <<- WHATS that ????
- 048600b4
- Internal revision 6.466, 92/10/15
-
- The only thing I can do is to rename the OS2.INI. But if I try to make a
- new one (MAKEINI OS2.INI OS2_20.RC) and reboot all I get is a gray screen and
- a mouse pointer :-(
-
- So: What can I do? I could make backup to the network and do a
- reinstall and restore. But dont like that.
-
- Why is the bad block not handeled by the SCSI-drive? It should use one
- of its sparse blocks if an error occures.
-
- Any Ideas?
- Thanx in advance
-
- Thomas
