Bashrc Input/output Error
of Ubuntu Join Date Jul 2006 Beans 8 Bash: Input/Output Error on every command Hi I have a very old Dell Inspiron on which Ubuntu 7.04 is installed. The kernel version is 2.6.24-19-generic. Sometimes, suddenly something happens and then every command from bash gives the same error: ~$ autoconf -V -bash: /usr/bin/autoconf: Input/output error ~$ ad -bash: /usr/bin/python: Input/output error The file system becomes read-only and no files can even be 'touch'ed. However, uname -r (and possibly other commands) still keep working. If you press Tab-Tab at the terminal, it hangs and then there is no way other than hard-boot to get stuff to work again. Can anyone suggest something to repair this annoying recurrence. Last edited by manish_jain; September 27th, 2008 at 12:48 AM.

The read-only action is an attempt to prevent filesystem damage. Unfortunately if the bad disk/partition contains the root files then the system quickly becomes unstable as nothing can be written. Next time it happens try running 'dme

(I did it on purpose, just to see what actually happens.) –AJMansfield Sep 12 '13 at 19:27 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 6 down vote accepted The system is having severe trouble reading off of your hard disk. It's likely that the disk is dead (almost certain), but it could be something as simple as a loose/disconnected cable (don't count on it). There isn't anything you can do to troubleshoot it from here. Just power it off. Check for loose connections on your hard disk. If everything is fine there boot from a rescue disk and run fsck or badblocks from there. I hope you have a back up. share|improve this answer answered Dec 26 '10 at 8:29 bahamat 4,17011323 1 The weird thing though is that when I was able to physically reboot the machine and did so,

Can you become root? All solutions will require root access so if you can't run sudo, can you at least su? Can you run shutdown? How about init? –terdon♦ Apr 12 '14 at 20:04 No, I can't be root. I didn't set Ubuntu's root password! :( –Mohsen Apr 12 '14 at 20:12 @Mohsen Setting a root password would not make any difference. You'd have to run su instead of sudo, but you'd run into the same problem. If you have no way to gain root access, you cannot reboot. –Gilles Apr 12 '14 at 23:45 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote If you have root access, you can try to do this: # echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger (that will immediately reboot the system without syncing or unmounting your disks.) Unfortunately, I do not think there is a way to reboot without root privileges. share|improve this answer answered Apr 12 '14 at 20:07 dnt 1114 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.
