Hi. What is the state of ext2resize for Ext3? How about the online-ext3-patch? Regards, Christian -- * Christian A.

I want only to ask , if it is necessary to run tun2fs -J the kernel to have support for ext3 . I want to boot , from another linux to convert my partions since the partition must not be mounted but this does n't support ext3 :-(.

You do have to run e2fsck first, which will run the journal, but resize2fs is paranoid, and requires a filesystem check before you resize the filesystem anyway (because any hidden filesystem corruptions can be terribly mangnified, and cause serious data loss, if they aren't corrected before the filesystem is resized). I imageine that ext2resize should work as well, again as long as e2fsck is run to make sure that journal recovery has been done. - Ted
Crap I missed the change in mm/slab.c setting DEBUG to 1. Now all is well with using SLAB_POISON. Sorry for the noise.
