    fsck.ext3 error on boot up - new sata drive



    I added a new sata drive to my computer (running Debian) and fdisk'd it. I can mount the drive and copy files to it. I have added the appropriate line to the fstab file to mount the disk at start up. However when I reboot the machine I get an fsck.ext3 error.

    Maybe the driver for the sata disk is not loading before the fsck is run?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    I think your partition have problem please repartition your hard disk and control every thing and do not forgot boot flag
