Ext3 fs: Block bitmap for group 1 not in group (block 0). is fs dead?
- by ip
Hi, My company has a server with one big partition with Mysql database and php files. Now this partition seems to be corrupted, as reported from kernel messages when I tried to mount it manually:
[329862.817837] EXT3-fs error (device loop1): ext3_check_descriptors: Block bitmap for group 1 not in group (block 0)!
[329862.817846] EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted!
I've tried to recovery it running tools from a PLD livecd. These are the tools I have tested:
- e2retrieve
- testdisk
- photorec
- dd_rescue/dd_rhelp
- ddrescue
- fsck.ext2
- e2salvage
without any success.

There's any other tools I have to test before considering these disk definitely unrecoverable?
Many thanks,
