RE: [SL] While installing on SME 7.rc2 I get FATAL: missing or erroneous pg_hba.conf file - SOLVED, thanks

[ATM L. <atm...@km...>]

Ok... Found the issue...  Imported my Month old backup...  Life is so-so...

Can anyone point me in a good direction to go to resolve the problems with
my old drive?

For those of you that may be using SME 7.xx, all I did was click the update
button, and my life started to suck...

What I am left with is a drive that is "bootable", and I can see my files,
however, the drive is stuck as read only, and I cannot mount any other file
systems, (ext2-3, no FTP, No Ethernet, no floppy, no nothin that lets me get
the data out)  I have fsck'd the drive, all is good, Even Knoppix left my
hang'in (cannot mount, unknown file system, yet will mount hda1...)

Who knows what happened?  Tried super block fixes, even loaded the drive
into a Windows Box  (figured that would scare it back inline...) using
e2fsifs yet no joy...

It just totally pushes me right to the edge that I can use Midnight
Commander... Go through every single stinking file on the drive and all is
good.... Yet its totally useless to me...  Seems no way to get it from there
to anything else...

Anyone have any tips?

Even tried cloneing the drive and got nowhere (some divide by zero error)

Yes, I can get WAY more specific on the errors if someone has the time to
help...
A good start would be  "read only filesystem (30)"  if someone knows what is
up with that, and how to fix it... That would be a great start.
