ext3: No journal on filesystem on dm-0

Hi Linuxers,

I am a newbie here and loggin this facilities regularly.

Recently my PC experience a power trip, my system could not boot up after restarting.

I did the following :

- Boot up with "linux rescue" using installation disk FC3
- In a shell, run "lvm vgchange --ignorelockingfailure -P -a y"
- since / parition is not mountable, I run "mknod /dev/dm-0 b 253 0"
- fsck -y /dev/dm-0, it took a long time but it clean now
- mount /dev/dm-0 /tmpRoot
- found out that there were NOTHING! except the lost+found directory which contains many files with a "#" prefix
- Restart the system but still could not boot up
One of the message says "ext3: No journal on filesystem on dm-0"

I am in a fix and what should I do now ?

Anyone could shed some light would be greatly appreciated!

regards
Chow
