similar to: root fs mounts as ext2, others ext3

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

Hi, Afraid I dont have a very new system to try out Xen.. It''s an ia32 PIII machine with 1GB memory (that''s gud i believe). When I try to build the initrd image for my xen kernel, i get error messages complaining about missing modules, so am trying to compile them on my own. Could find support for the remaining three, but am left with lpfcdd.ko. Couldnt find an appropriate

Kernel 2.4.8 on an Athlon 500. e2fsprogs-1.23 ext3 compiled as a module. I used "tune2fs" to make /boot and /home into ext3, and remounted them OK. (I am so amazed to see the system come right back without an lengthy fsck on these two file systems after a power off! Well done!) I also used "tune2fs -j" on /, it created a /.journal file. The debugfs features command shows

Hi, Hi, I have been googling, and can't find anything that will help me: mt -f /dev/st0 status /dev/st0: No such device or address Any suggestion?

Hi, I just converted all my hard disk filesystems from ext2 to ext3. This worked perfectly fine for all non-root fs, but I am having trouble converting the root fs, too. Here's what I did: 1. rebuilt my kernel (2.4.20, x86) with ext3 support linked in statically - no module. 2. Added a journal file to my root fs using 'tune2fs -j'. 3. Added 'rootfstype=ext3' to the

Since updating * via CVS earlier this week, I've been having problems with cdr_mysql. Prior to that time my queries and cdr all worked fine. Now, even though my queries still work, I get the messages similar to this: ERROR[1211374384]: cdr_addon_mysql.c:203 mysql_log: Failed to insert into databas -- Hungup 'Zap/74-1' Anyone have any suggestions what went wrong?

Hello, I search through but I didn't find a clear answer about it. I have a rh 6.2 based box where I made many steps of upgrades. Some of them, not being available the binary rpm glibc 2.1 based, I obtained using src.rpm from rh 7.2 and then runnig #rpm --rebuild package.src.rpm and then installing the generated binary: great sw rpm!!! My rpm version is 4.0.2-6x for both rpm, rpm-devel,

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 I have a Dell PE2300 with a Digium TDM400P line card in it (with one module to handle an inbound phone line). This is running on a Fedora 8 system with Asterisk 1.4.21.2-1.fc8 This system has been working nicely for about 12 months. After a recent move of office and relocation of the server Asterisk is back on line, but the TDM line card has stopped working. I have spent half a day

I have been trying very hard to seek help with my very complex issue but so far none have been successful. So I would like to try this mailing list, maybe there are some experts who know what they're talking about. Please refer to my experts-exchange question, all the required information will be there. It is more practical to send you to the webpage than paste out what I've done.

Dear All, I have a following query: - My initrd image is created using ext2 filesystem. - The filesystem type of / is specified as ext3 in /etc/fstab file. - I dont mount the real root during execution of linuxrc because I referred some documents saying that if you dont mount real root from linuxrc the kernel will mount it after linuxrc is finished. - The system boots up successfully, mount

Hello. I am trying to boot CentOS 4 from a copy of an ext3 software RAID 1 filesystem (md) which has been copied to a normal ext3 filesystem (hd). I am almost getting there, exept that the system hangs after booting the kernel. I copied the datas from the /boot and / partitions to two similar partitions on the backuped disk with mirrordir (can also be done with cp or dd). I have setup the new

Hello , I use kernel 2.4.7 patched with corresponding ext3 patch. The problem I have is that when I startup I get a panic in a kernel. I started to debug util-linux and found that mount does a segmentation fault when trying to open /etc/mtab file. The segmentation fault ocurrs on open() call inside mtab_is_writable() procedure: printf("mtab_writable: pass 1\n"); if (ret ==

Hi list, I was looking for a kernel option to mount the root fs (/) as ext2 with an ext3 enabled kernel. I searched the list archive and I'm not sure whether rootflags=noload is the right option... Can someone give me a hint? I'm using 2.4.6-pre5 with ext3-0.0.8. TIA Juri -- Juri Haberland <juri@koschikode.com>

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
