similar to: 2.4.14 patch

Good morning, I have tried to compile a 2.4.14 kernel (because I have some trouble with the framebuffer and my Toshiba...). Thus, I have downloaded the latest kernel and the ext3 patch. I have used the .config file used for the compilation of my 2.4.13 kernel, but the compilation ends with make[1]: Quitte le répertoire `/usr/src/linux-2.4.14/arch/i386/lib' ld -m elf_i386 -T

Hey how is it going. I can't seem to access the latest patch for 2.4.14 from the website @ www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ Can someone send me the file (by email) or have a mirror/site where I can download from. Thanks ps - I know the purpose of the mailing list is not this, but this is my last resort. I really need to try ext3 on my laptop. thanks again exo

Tried to convert a 60 gig ext2 disk to ext3. Used tune2fs version 1.22 (it said). The filesystem refused to be converted with that version. Upgraded to 1.25 of e2fsprogs and the problem went away. My two cents. /Benjamin

Hi, I am a new ext3 user and I am having problems similar to what many people are facing on this list. I have done everything as the emails suggest. I am using SuSE 7.3 with the the 2.4.10 kernel and ext3 compiled as a module. Because it is 2.4.10 kernel, I created all my journals from a rescue disk and everything seems to be working right for the non-root filesystems. My fstab has all my

Download details and documentation are at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ Changes since ext3-0.9.13 (which was against linux-2.4.13): - Fixed a null-pointer dereference oops which could hit on SMP machines. This fix was applied to 2.4.12-ac6, but the oops has never been reported against -ac kernels. - Large amounts of developer debug code has been removed. This will now be

Hey , I finally got the patch guys. What a day. Hopefully now , I will be able to test ext3 to its fullest on my laptop peace, thanks. The web url is working now, later exodous@sdf.lonestar.org

Hi, Since upgrading to 2.4.14 with the ext3 patch, I've been getting the following on bootup: VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly. change_root: old root has d_count=5 Trying to unmount old root ... invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer okay Is the invalidate busy buffer bit anything to worry about?

Please CC me as I'm not subscribed. Attached is my kernel configuration. Please forgive me if this is being asked a gazillion times in the list. I'm using the 2.4.14 patch found at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ . ld -m elf_i386 -T /usr/src/linux-2.4.14/arch/i386/vmlinux.lds -e stext arch/i386/kernel/head.o arch/i386/kernel/init_task.o init/main.o init/version.o \

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'd like to put a 60GB hard disk into Gateway 2000 Pentium 150 (from '96 or '97 or so I think) running FreeBSD 4.8 RELEASE. Can anybody tell me how successful this is likely to be? Will I be able to use the full capacity of the drive? I seem to recall that the trick with large hard disks and old BIOSes is to disable the drive in

Hi, this site: http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ says "Forbidden" when I try to access .... , where can I download the ext3 patch for 2.4.15 ? Thank you Nikolai

An update of the ext3 journalling filesystem for 2.4 kernels is available at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ Patches are against 2.4.6-ac1 and 2.4.6. Changes since 0.0.8 include: - Multiplied the version numbering by ten to cater for bugfix releases against the 0.9.0 stream. - The main thrust has been the removal of a number of changes in the core kernel which were required

I am in the odd situation of needing to revert my root partition back to ext2 so that it may be resized. I prefer to use Partition Magic at the moment and it can only work with partitions of ext2, not ext3. I believe that the documentation for ext3 exists at the main web site, http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/. That is my next destination but as the answer may not exist there, I

Patches against 2.4.10-pre4 and 2.4.9-ac9 are at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ It's a fairly large change. The most significant parts are * the inclusion of Stephen's error-handling work, which is designed to remount the fs read-only in the presence of software and hardware errors, rather than forcing a panic. * Stephen's fix for the journal_revoke assertion

Passes all my testing. http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ It's still at 0.9.13. No changes were made apart from resolving the fs.h reject, and retesting. People who have already applied the 2.4.13-pre6 patch to 2.4.13 needn't apply this patch.

Just wanted to note that you also need "mount" => 2.11 to use "auto" in fstab. On the homepage http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ it only tells you to use "util-linux" => 2.11 Also, a note about SILO not working with unclean Ext3 would be nice (i.e. make a dedicated ext2 /boot partition if you want to run ext3 on Sparc). /Martin (very new to this list)

Is there a patch for 2.4.9 out there. I saw the ac one on http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ but cant fond one for the main branch Regards Robert Stanford

An ext3 patch against linux 2.4.10 is at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ This patch is *lightly tested* - ie, it boots and does stuff. The changes to ext3 are small, but the kernel which it patches has recently changed a lot. If you're cautious, please wait a couple of days. The patch retains the buffer-tracing code. This will soon be broken out into a separate patch to make

Hi. I just installed ext3 for 2.4.5 from http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ but couldn't find anything about converting my root partition to ext3. 2 partitions are now ext3 after I umount and tune2fs, but what should I do with / ? I tried init 1 and umount, but tune2fs would fail because it was on read-only fs. Another question is if I can now build ext2 as a module, and if it's
