Hi, I'm on kernel 2.14.13-ac8 running Redhat 7.1. I've successfully converted all my file system to ext3 and is working fine for a couple of weeks. However, I did a silly thing when I e2fsck (version 1.23) an ext3 /home partiction without umounting it. Now, I believe my partiton super-block is corrupted and the system wasn't able to mount /home. I tried as suggested to do a e2fsck -b

Hi, We have recently switched from XFS to ext3 do to various corruption scenarios that were witnessed. Does ext3 have something like xfs_growfs for growing the FS to the end of the underlying partition? Thanks, Menny

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

I accidentally removed an ext3 partition from the partition table. I know roughly where it started. Is there any way of finding the superblock and reconstructing it? TIA, Dave (Yes I have a backup of the important stuff!)

i have a question on ext3 modes and am not sure if this list is still active

I'm getting ready to add some memory to a server running RH7.3 with ext3. I'm going to need to add more space to the swap partition and so I'll also need to resize an ext3 partition. I've seen some posts by searching the list that the resize2fs should work fine, but the man pages don't mention anything about ext3. Version is: resize2fs 1.27 (8-Mar-2002) Has anyone actually

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Does anybody have any links/howtos on creating an encrypted file system using ext3?

Hi, I get the error "Operation not permitted" when I try to delete a file as root, see some commands below. - there is no "i" attribute - it's a problem with the files and not the upper directories since I can delete a similar file in the same directory - fsck -f doesn't find any error on the partition - the partition is mounted rw If this is not the right place to

Is there option for deleting xattr-s same as --delete for files, because it seems deletion of xattr don't sync, however it is synced when data of file change, see example below. Maybe this is a bug or maybe this is ok? System gentoo attr-2.4.32, rsync form today cvs. -- Regards Stanislaw Gruszka stasiu@sg /mnt/hda5/export $ echo "data" > file stasiu@sg /mnt/hda5/export $

I tried it on loop. 1. mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/test -t ext3 2. cp files to 100% full 3. umount /mnt/test 4. fsck.ext3 -f /dev/loop0 Inode xxxxx, i_blocks is xxx, should be yyy. Fix?

hello! I use flac 1.0.2 with xmms 1.2.5 . The problem appears when I use the scroll bar to listen a few second forward in the song ("seek to ..."). Then xmms does'nt react and stops playing music for a few seconds. After these few second xmms works fine again and plays the song. The length of these pause is longer when I want to listen near the end of the song; its shorter when

There seems to be a change in the behavior of the function ' mean() ' in 1.40. In earlier versions, the application of mean to a dataframe (all numeric)would return the aggregate mean of all of the columns. Now, in 1.40 application of mean to the dataframe returns a list of the column means. The new 'help' documents the new behavior. So the change is obviously intend I read the

I am trying to use data=journal on my root file system. I have separate slices on which journal=data works fine on all of them, except root. I have tried putting rootflags=journal=data on my kernel line in Grub, but I get a kernel panic. I'm missing something simple, I jut know it. It can't be the kernel version because it works on the other slices. My etc/fstab file is as follows:

Hi, I'm trying to obtain confidence intervals for auto and cross correlation estimates. I've adapted code made available by Stock and Watson that uses the Bartlett Kernel and the delta method. In R it runs really, really slow because of the loops it uses and I have 9 series that I'd like to examine (81 total combinations). It was easy enough to replace one of the while loops with a

I've tried to find my answer to this question but I have not (yet). Any assistance or expert knowledge is greatly appreciated! PROBLEM: mounting an ext3 volume 'read only' results in a different md5sum hash value for the volume than when the same volume is *not* mounted SCENARIO: - when I hash unmounted /dev/hda5 using 'md5sum /dev/hda5' I get value XXX. - when I hash

Just achieved success using syslinux to multi-OS boot, including a WinXP System (boot) partition that's been encrypted with TrueCrypt (TC). You'll need syslinux version 3.81-pre13 or newer to get a working altmbr.bin file. I used: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/syslinux-3.81-pre13.zip Background: I started with a 'normal' multi-OS boot setup as

Hello, Sorry for the off-topic, but I've just installed CentOS 5 on my home box and I want to put the journal on another drive. I created a software RAID-1 device, /dev/md1, and formatted an ext3 file system on it. Now I want to move the journal to /dev/hda5. I've googled for this and the process appears to be: mkfs.ext3 -b 4096 -O journal_dev /dev/hda5 mkfs.ext3 -b 4096 -J

Hi, I'm trying to use the altmbr.bin that came with 3.80 on an ATA IDE drive. When I boot I get this error msg: > Missing operating system. > > No bootable devices--strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility. The first line is coming from syslinux, the final line is my BIOS offering for me to retry. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- PC: Dell D500 notebook, P4 1.4GHz

To test CentOS 5, I loaded from DVD adding it to a system at home running Fedora Core 7 T2. Partition Layout is: /dev/hda1 - / for the RH7T2 system /dev/hda2 - /home /dev/hda3 - swap /dev/hda4 - extended /dev/hda5 - / for CentOS 5 The system loaded cleanly and gave me the opportunity to tell grub about the other system. CentOS boots fine. Grub Stage 2 will show me both systems.
