similar to: E2fsprogs 1.42 is released!

I've just made e2fsprogs 1.36-rc1 available on Sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2406&package_id=2383&release_id=295092 Fedora Core 3 users will be strongly encouraged to upgrade to e2fsprogs 1.36, since it has numerous bug fixes to some of the Fedora-specific enhancements to e2fsprogs --- in particular, supporting on-line resizing feature using the

Hi, A critical regression has been discovered in e2fsck. The problem was introduced in upstream 1.41.5 and is causing updates to block group descriptors to be lost after journal replay. Our 1.41.5.sun2 (.sun1 too) e2fsprogs version also suffers from this problem. We are working on rebasing our e2fsprogs package on 1.41.6 (see bug 19852). Until the new rpm is available (should be very soon), we

Hi Ted and all, I have a couple of questions near the end of this message, but first I have to describe my problem in some detail. The power failure on Thursday did something evil to my ext3 file system (box running RH9+patches, ext3, /dev/md0, raid5 driver, 400GB f/s using 3x200GB IDE drives and one hot-spare). The f/s got corrupt badly and the symptoms are very similar to what Eddy described

got the following in the freshmeat newsletter. the page doesn't say anything about it. also the sct dir on kernel.org still shows the WIP version... [007] - e2fsprogs 1.20 (Default)   by P. Adami (http://freshmeat.net/users/ramirez/)   Monday, May 28th 2001 19:39 The ext2fsprogs package contains essential ext2 filesystem utilities which consists of e2fsck, mke2fs, debugfs, dumpe2fs, tune2fs,

I have been playing with external journals some more and thought I should share some experiences. I am running 2.4.16 with the ext3 patches from Andrew Morton and e2fsprogs 1.25 I have an ext3fs filesystem on an 8 drive RAID5 array and place the journal on a partition of the mirrored pair that I boot off (all drives SCSI). I have tried pulling the power cable and seeing what happens. I finally

hi all, sorry when i am off topic, but: i am trieing to compile the new e2fsprogs like the ext3-manual recommend. but it don't want to work, and it's look like i need a programm which is named "makeinfo". does anybody had the same problems, or know where i can find it? thanks for all.. i added my error-log Andreas log: make[1]: Wechsel in das Verzeichnis Verzeichnis

Hi all, ext3-0.0.5c is now up at: ftp.uk.linux.org:/pub/linux/sct/fs/jfs/ and ftp.*.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/people/sct/ext3/ The most important part of this release is the e2fsprogs: e2fsck now supports the journal changes for metadata-only journaling. Ted, I've changed around the use of jfs* include files in e2fsprogs quite heavily here. In each build directory --- the lib/ext2fs

Hello syslinux, I'm a newbie to extlinux, and I'm a developer from yocto project (an embedded linux project). The device or filesystem must be mounted before we can install the bootsector to the device if I understand correctly, for example: $ mount /dev/sdcX /tmp/mnt $ extlinux -i /tmp/mnt Usually, the mount command requires the root privilage, we may not have the root privilage when

Hello, Hope you will forgive me for asking some very simple question about e2fsprogs. I am very new to the kernel as well as file system programming. My task is to collect superblock, inode, bitmap ( or free list) information from ext2/ext3 filesysteam. After searching the google, I came to know about e2fsprogs, which I was able to install and use at least "dumpe2fs" utility. This

SUMMARY We are getting many ``Free blocks count wrong for group'' errors when running e2fsck on a 245-GB ext3 filesystem. This is when the file system is cleanly unmounted on a relatively quiet system to do a resize. From reading other messages here, my suspicion is that this is because we have e2fsprogs 1.32. Questions: * Should we use e2fsck/e2fsprogs 1.36 and will that probably

Dear Ted, I upgraded e2fsprogs and util-linux to the latest versions, as per the instructions on the "ext3 for 2.4" page, to make the switching between ext2-only and ext3-enabled kernels seamless. Now that if the filesystems have not been unmounted cleanly, due to a power failure for example, "fsck -A -a" cannot continue after checking the root filesystem on reboot, issuing

That's definitely good advice, but even with e2fsprogs 1.35, if e2fsck -f is

Hi I'm experiencing some problems on a harddisk (it has crashed for no known reason), and in pursuit of getting some of the data out of the disk I'm learning to use the e2fs progs package. Origianlly I used version 1.38, but after experiencing segfaults in e2fsck -which now is solved, I upgraded to 1.39, but now I have hit another problem (on another partition): The partition was
