Hey all,

Last night, I had a server crash.  This morning, when I rebooted the machine, I ran into some issues with one of my ext3 scsi disks.

When I re-ran fsck.ext3 manually, I used "-p" to auto-repair all the problems.  Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be repairing the problems.  Here is the output of the fsck.ext3 run:


(Repair filesystem) 1 # fsck.ext3 -pvf /dev/sda1
/dev/sda1: Duplicate or bad block in use!
/dev/sda1: Duplicate blocks found... invoking duplicate block passes.

/dev/sda1: 

/dev/sda1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
        (i.e., without -a or -p options)

Any insight is appreciated.
