My Linux frozen today (something very unusual) when I tried starting Win4lin.
Rebooting showed me that the root partition is corrupted. Unfortunately, the /home partition is also corrupted. Both are reiserfs3.

There is a tool reiserfsck which is said to repair corrupted reiserfs partitions. I won’t use it though, not until I backup the partitions first. Unfortunately, it seems I need another HDD, since my home partition is quite big - 40 GB.

Let’s hope for the best. My activity is extremely affected by a not working system.
