similar to: change raid1 from ext2 to ext3

Hi, I have read this thread and want to say that I have expirienced the same problem. Once, when I was loged in, one of my filesystems ( root filesystem :( ) became read-only with the same symptoms. But results was more tragic. Almost in each directory avg. 10% of files had incorrect attributes, owner, links, etc. But filenames was correct. So, I was obliged to re-create root filesystem :(

Hi, I'm trying to use a similarity matrix (triangular) as input for pam() or fanny() clustering algorithms. The problem is that this algorithms can only accept a dissimilarity matrix, normally generated by daisy(). However, daisy only accept 'data matrix or dataframe. Dissimilarities will be computed between the rows of x'. Is there any way to say to that your data are already a

Hi there, I tried to setup my linux box with an ext3 root file system. That failed because of wrong initrd settings. Sorry. Now the filesystem is marked having a journal but there is no /.journal file anyway. I tried to buikd that journal by hand (tune2fs -j /dev/hda3 - in my case). That fails also. :-( /sbin/tune2fs -l /dev/hda3 says: ... Journal UUID: <none> Journal

I'm using the ext3-patched version of Linux 2.4.13 (the patch from Andrew Morton's UOW site). I compiled both ext3 and ext2 into the kernel. I've also done "tune2fs -j /dev/hda3" and changed /etc/fstab to ext3. However, when I boot up, the filesystem still gets mounted as ext2. I've been trying to figure out why for many days now.. any ideas? Here's my setup:

Hello, I would like to use my own dissimilarity matrix in a PAM clustering with method "pam" (cluster package) instead of a dissimilarity matrix created by daisy. I read data from a file containing the dissimilarity values using "read.csv". This creates a matrix (alternatively: an array or vector) which is not accepted by "pam": A call

Can anyone comment on whether or not it is possible to successfully disable the journal of an ext3 root file system prior to reboot? My application is to try and make sure there is no journal prior to installing and rebooting into a system which does not support ext3. I know that as long as the root is cleanly remounted r/o with no journal updates pending, this will be compatible. I'm

Hi, I try to convert my RedHat 7.3. partitions from ext3 to ext2. I have found a thread dealing with this issue. Thus: "tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/foo" and "e2fsck /dev/foo" will do the magic! This works fine for "/boot" but when I try to convert "/" my kernel panics? The kernel panics message appears shortly after the attempt to startup kjournald. How

Dear All Greetings. I have a question regarding ext3 file system. I have installed Red Hat linux 8 with ext2 file system and I have multiple partition. Now I want to convert them to ext3 file system without distrubing my data. If any one got the idea, please let me know.

Hi all.. I have found some problems on smbfs module in 2.4.18 kernel. I compiled it by myself (not the very first kernel compilation in my life ;-)) and then I have got it. Looks like it touch smbfs module as when I recompile 2.4.18 modules with smbfs sources changed to sources of smbfs from 2.4.17 problem disappears!! My mainboard is Abit BE6 with Pentium III 450 MHz. I am using SuSE 7.3 with

Hi. I'm using Debian. Is this a Redhat-only list, or is it only hosted by RedHat? I recently changed my filing systems over to ext3, but deliberately left the forced boot check parameters alone so my system checks after 20 mounts. I notice that the fsck takes a good ten times longer than under ext2, to perform the cleanly unmounted check. (On the occasion where I did unmount dirtily, the

Hi, Also I do have some problems mounting an ext3fs which gets just mounted as an ext2fs. (Yeap, I looked a little bit around in the mailling list and found similiar problems which haven't help me ;-( ) I have a root ( /) and a /mnt partition. both are converted via tune2fs -j into a journaled fs. my fstab looks like this: /dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults

Hi, I've downloaded and installed kernel-2.4.9 from rawhide in order to use ext3 support (I've also upgraded the necessary packages). I've used tune2fs to make the current ext2 partitions (incluind /) and changed fstab to reflect that. In order to test if everything is ok (this is a test machine) I've switched off with no shutdown. Except the / all other partitions accused

Hi guys'n'girls, I think my question is : How can I tell a redhat 2.4.x kernel (via grub or LILO command-line parameters) that the root filesystem is ext2 and not ext3 ? I thought it would just look in /etc/fstab, but presumably it needs to know what fstype the root is before mounting it; the words 'chicken' and egg' spring to mind. Or does some initrd jggerypokery go on?

Hi, I just attempted to convert my only partition, /, to ext3. I downloaded the patch and compiled the kernel with ext3 support built-in, along with the JBD Debugging support. Compiled the kernel and rebooted, everything was fine. Did a tune2fs -j /dev/hda2 on the partition in single-user mode, with e2fsprogs 1.24a. It complained about not having enough space, or something like that, (I have

Everyone, We just had a pretty bad crash on one of production boxes and the ext2 filesystem on the data partition of our box had some major filesystem corruption. Needless to say, I am now looking into converting the filesystem to ext3 and I have some questions regarding ext3 and Linux software RAID. I have read that previously there were some issues running ext3 on a software raid device

Hello, I'd like to read superblock's information on Redhat 7.3, but I don't know how to do it. For example, Input : "/dev/sdj2" Output : ext2_super_block struct's s_wtime (I saw it at "/usr/include/ext2fs/ext2_fs.h") Input : "/dev/sdj1" Output : ext3_super_block struct's s_wtime (I saw it at

According to this: http://www.redhat.com/support/wpapers/redhat/ext3/why.html ext3 is forward and backward compatible with ext2... Any user who wishes to un-journal a file system can do so easily... I am assuming un-journalling is the equivalent of converting it to ext2. How do you do this? I haven't been able to find anything. The reason I want to do this is so I can modify my

Hi, I am using RH 7.2 Enigma and with ext3 filesystem. Before installing RH Linux, I used Partition Magic 7 in Windows to prepare partition ext2 for Linux which was then converted to ext3 when installing RH 7.2. Now that I want to expand the space for the Linux partition, I find out that PM 7 does not support and recognize ext3 filesystem. My questions then are: 1. How do I convert ext3 to
