Boot with bad superblock in root fs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Is it possible to boot a Linux system that has suffered unfixable primary superblock corruption in the root filesystem (ext2)? I know the mount command can be supplied an alternate superblock with the sb option, but AFAIK, the earliest this can be done is by setting the option for the failing partition in /etc/fstab. But of course, root must already be mounted for that to apply.

Is there any Way to specify an alternate superblock to initrd to mount the root filesystem?

Thanks,
Jay
