Hi,
I just launched e2fsck -c /dev/hdb1 on my hard drive and have this
result this morning. I know that this hardrive was deficient this
week-end, I just want to know more. But is the result good or bad ? I
dunno ;-)

Thanks for your help,

Usually when there are any problems, such as an unclean shutdown because
of power loss, there are inode corrections. It looks like your
filesystem checked clean.
You can read the documentation on the system with man or info or do a
search on e2fsprogs which contain the packages used to maintain the ext2
and ext3 filesystems.
