A possible fix for 'overlapped extent allocation' errors
How about a shell script to list the 'inum' followed by the path to what was found and put it in a text file at ~/Desktop. This way one could see what was what and then determine the best course of action without having to slog through the error numbers one at a time??
A possible fix for 'overlapped extent allocation' errors
This is UNTESTED, so USE AT YOUR OWN RISK (in other words, it may require minor tweaking, but it's at least some starting point - it is not elegant at all)
This should produce a file in your boot volume's root directory. I had the overlapped extent problem right now, but I cured it quick because I moved several files to a different disk before running fsck, so I didn't really try the script above. Maybe it helps. Regards, /k
A possible fix for 'overlapped extent allocation' errors
Diskwarrior will list overlapped files by name, as long as it doesn't choke on the diagnosis phase. Use version 3, it's much faster than version 2, and boot from the Diskwarrior 3 CD, since DW 3 doesn't work yet under OS 10.3.x. |
