gui fsck not returning errors #107

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Any dirty disk that cannot be fixed in fdisk -p mode
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

For some disk errors when fdisk is run in -p mode it return an error message

/dev/sdb2: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
        (i.e., without -a or -p options)

This error message does not get displayed on the gui and the user thinks teh 
disk ha sbeen repaired when it has not. At the next boot fdisk will run again, 
and so on.

What Alt-F version are you using? Have you flashed it?
0.1RC2

What is the box hardware revision level? A1, B1 or C1? (look at the label
at the box bottom)
B1

What is your disk configuration? Standard, RAID (what level)...
Standard 

What operating system are you using on your computer? Using what browser?
Win7/Firefox 14.01

Please provide any additional information below.
This issue has been partially fixed by adding a force check box to the gui, but 
the error messages are only captured elsewhere in the system logs. Most newbs 
won't know to look there.
