Lvm Issue

Axios

On my Lenovo its lvm but the filesystem is always needing repaired.
Runs for awhile then browsers start having issues which I use most on here they crash
or wont download (with failed authorization error or just failed download error) Check
with dmesg there will be an i/o error block error on ssd.

Other than a complete new install any suggestions?
I select the main 32g ssd with disks and then check and repair.

I don't think 'repair' historically does much but surface fixes, In that way I think its as cosmetic as S.M.A.R.T tools/checks.
I read you three times and every time i think hard drive/hardware---it's so glaringly obvious that everytime I say ever say it's a glaringly obvious hardware problem, the thread OP will find a software fix🙁. Nostradamus I ain't.

That sounds like your drive is dying / malfunctioning. There are no software fixes for hardware problems.

Harvey Hmm 32g non replaceable Lenovo ideapad...
I Just been copying needed things will nuke in abit..lol and reinstall see if that helps.

Is there no Linux equivalent of chkdsk? How about fsck?

That really sucks. Just note a reinstall might seem to fix it, but if it really is dying hardware it may just mask the problem as different files end up falling in the failing block and those files you might not notice as much.

As always keep backups of important files. Good luck.

That does not repair hardware. If the hardware is failing, running fsck does not heal the disk / make it unlikely to occur again.

Harvey Seems the issues were with lvm new install ext4 hummin along just fine
My older Allinone i noticed is setup for lvm and also has on off issues it will get converted back to ext4
I would suggest if ppl dont need lvm dont use it.
A remarkable dmseg i have now!!
