It didn't say that. Anyway, I've tried fsck using different hda number
but it didn't work.
Instead, it said that fstab did not contain fsck passno field. (1st
warning shown). I guess it then tried to fsck for me, stating
fsck.ext2/ :
Then it said "The superblock could not be read or does not describe a
correct ext2 filesystem ... try running e2fsck with alternate superblock :
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
I've tried e2fsck like stated on screen with different hda. How many
superblocks are there? I'll check the different hda starting blocks
again but I doubt it will work. What if the filesystem is using ext3?
What error report? I know dmesg but it is in /var/log which is empty.
