I'm having a strange problem I've never seen before. Sometimes my system
crashes, and upon restart I am missing *at least* a handful of files. They
are completely gone and untraceable. At first I forced fsck on reboot, and
that helped recover some of them, but the problem continues. I have no clue
even where to start tracing this. Can anyone help? The system is a new AMD
Phenom on a SATA Seagate 1Tb disk. Ubuntu Ibex is the only OS loaded, on
ext3 partitioned 5 ways.
My system just crashed today, and now that I'm back up and running there is
one file in particular that is completely gone. I haven't touched this file
in months, and it just up and disappeared.
I checked with Seagate to see if my drive was part of the recall, it's not.
(so they say)
HELP!
