File system disappears on the Omega1 until reboot



  • Hi,

    Does anybody else get the file system randomly disappear on the Omega1? I have the root running on a usb through a hub. I First thought it was a loos connection but this has happened in exactly the same way on two completely different devices. here is the error I get:

    BusyBox v1.23.2 (2016-07-08 19:27:03 UTC) built-in shell (ash)
    
    cat: read error: Input/output error
    [14908.630000] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_find_entry:1289: inode #131140:                                    comm ash: reading directory lblock 0
    [14908.640000] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_find_entry:1289: inode #130308:                                    comm ash: reading directory lblock 0
    [14908.650000] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_find_entry:1289: inode #131140:                                    comm ash: reading directory lblock 0
    [14908.660000] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_find_entry:1289: inode #131140:                                    comm ash: reading directory lblock 0
    [14908.670000] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_find_entry:1289: inode #130308:                                    comm ash: reading directory lblock 0
    root@Omega-1E48:/#
    root@Omega-1E48:/#
    

    any ls after that returns a blank prompt. Also if I ftp into the device, it appears to be blank.

    I would like to get to the bottom of the cause and also write a script that would detect this and rectify it if it happens. Currently I reboot and this fixes the problem. Any ideas on how to rectify without a reboot?

    Thanks.



  • For a detection of the problem, maybe you can create a script that tests for the existence of a specific file on your USB fs, and reboot the Omega if need be. This script can run on a regular basis using cron.

    I'm not familiar with OpenWRT, but maybe there's a less drastic solution like unmount and remount the USB fs instead of rebooting? Is this something that you tried in your investigation about this problem?
