Greetings. Total newbie with Ext3. I selected when I upgraded my system to RH7.2. I upgraded my system again to RH8.0. Here is some info: [root@world root]# cat /proc/mounts rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 /dev/root / ext3 rw 0 0 /proc /proc proc rw 0 0 usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs rw 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 /dev/hdd1 /mnt/genericdata1 ext2 rw 0 0 Ok, so

Over the last two days we've been seeing a fair bit of this: ---- # ls -laR > /dev/null ... ls: ./server2/b/user/bxyz/392.: Input/output error ---- This is with the latest htree patches applied to 2.4.19, and latest e2fsprogs-test, on a dual AMD system, with 5x73GB SCSI drives on a MegaRAID controller.

I had a power-fail this morning, and when I rebooted, /etc/rc.d/rc.boot issued a 'mount -n -o remount,ro /' and then a 'fsck -A -V -a -C'. The fsck failed on my root partition. I know why it failed. It called fsck.ext2 . My root poartition is ext3. My question is, why did it call fsck.ext2? Another question, why was it checked at all? My /etc/fstab contains: /dev/hda1 / ext3

Forgive me if this has been discussed. I'm new to the list and couldn't find any list archives or a FAQ or anything similiar. (Is there anything?) I've just today installed ext3 .5d in my machine. All drives (including '/'). I like it! However, I'm curious about what it's doing. I don't know C, so telling me to read source won't help. I'm wondering if it

Does anyone know of any Linux-based filesystem that does file-level auditing and logs based on username? Does ext2/3 do such auditing (stock or with patches)? I would like a filesystem that can be told to audit and log file deletions and log the username that deleted the file (similar to auditing on NTFS). I know, I should be using file permissions to prevent this type of deletion from

Hi, got a very severe problem. I have two hard drives in my RS server and I am getting the secondary drive removed. Here's the problem. After the secondary drive is removed, the server fails to bootup completely, crashing at fsck. The server boots up fine when the secondary drive is put back in however. Has anyone ever encountered this problem before? Could the problem be to references to

hi i got 2 questions and maybe someone could shed some light: a) i'm using kernel 2.4.17 and use ext3 in it. is it possible that the whole system is slower than with ext2? i switched back to ext2 (great feature!!!) and the system's response seemed somewhat better. should/could there be such a effect as double writing of journaled data? i didnt activate debugging (jbd). b) is reiserfs

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.

I managed to install 0.5d today. Got all 3 of my mounts converted (even '/' though it was a pain in the ass). Now on boot, I see: mounted /dev/hda1 on / EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode and the exact same thing for /dev/hda3 and /dev/hdb1. they all come up and appear to be working. so is this normal? Or did I manage to screw up somewhere? -- Douglas J. Hunley (Linux User
