Subject: fsck killed by kernel, consuming >4gb ra · Posted: 2003-12-04, 02:05am

Greetings,
Would anyone have a clue how to fsck a corrupted 160gb ext3 partition on x86, when the fsck memory usage gets above 4gb? Obviously, there is no point in adding more swap beyond this...
I'm somewhat clueless. At worst, I'll backup everything somehow ( mounted, the partition works just fine... for the reading part at least ) and reformat, but I would really prefer to avoid this solution.
Thanks!
