I formatted my main myth storage area for recordings as jfs, because I saw it recommended on the basis that it deletes files faster.
It does do that, but unfortunately about every day and a half the jfs partition unmounts itself. When I try to re-mount it, I get the dreaded, "bad fs type, bad superblock" failure message. Then I run
Code: Select all
fsck /dev/sda3
I tried moving all my recordings to a completely different drive using dd, again formatted as jfs, but the problem still occurs, so I'm fairly certain it's not the hardware. All the other ext3 partitions on the drive are fine.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? And if it's just a bad idea to use jfs, what would you recommend instead?
TIA
