Hello everyone,
I somehow managed to corrupt some of my filesystem.
What I did was this:
in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf (Kubuntu)
I added:
install snd-aloop /sbin/modprobe snd-aloop
Saved it, then ran, modprobe snd-aloop, the system started spawning many copies of modprobe, then machine started going though a swap storm, could not reboot safely, hit power button on laptop. When the system came back up, EXT4 greeted me with severe errors on some opened files. It did repair filesystem however. It corrupted some configuration files that were open at the time of the shutdown.
I'm guessing no matter how much you attempt to replay a journal you still can get corruption such as this?
Thanks, Shawn.
