View Full Version : [VU+ Duo] What is the exact command to check the disk in telnet ?
Vix 3.0.668
After doing a HD diskcheck in the Vu+ menu I get
Error
/dev/sdb1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY: RUN fsck MANUALLY. (i.e, without -a or -p options)
I telnet into Vu+ then unmounted and tried fsck but did not work, I think I read somewhere Vix doesn't use fsck?
What is the exact command to check the disk and fix errors in Vix?
Thanks
I do not know this image well as I've only just got a MIPS based RX. However, I know fsck.ext4 works. What format is your disk?
Here you got (with progress whilst in telnet):
init 4
umount -a
e2fsck -f -C 0 -v /dev/sdx1
It's important to init 4, as this will shutdown any processses that might be accessing the hdd. Then, unmount -a will unmount all devices (you could just umount /dev/sdx1).
sdx1 is the correct location of the device you are trying to run fsck on...
hth :)
Many thanks,
I ended up changing the disk and everything runs smoothly now, but I have a shed load of recordings on the old disk which need moving across.
I did see this

I have a powered external sata caddie
and wondered if you can use both internal & external sata at the same time because this looks the quickest way to transfer files between disks.
Im guessing it will work unless the controller is shared like I think it was in the Dm800
I looked at DMESG output. It reports two ports on different addresses so should be okay

ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 mmio [mem 0x10181000-0x10190fff] port 0x180 irq 41
Yes it works (2 disks on sata interfaces)
I'm in the process of transferring recordings with some success as the old disk has a fault.
i do simply,
fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1
i do simply,
fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1
Method I posted gives a visual of progress tho, so better if you're waiting to see when it finishes...

When I swapped out my 250Gb HDD for a 500Gb drive I plugged the new drive in the box and formatted it.
I then just plugged both the old and new in my PC, then booted up off a Ubuntu boot CD then simply used file explorer to copy and paste the files across.
