similar to: ext3 0.9.12 for 2.4.10-ac11

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

I am trying to compile 2.4.10-ac11 w/ the ext3-2.4-0.9.12-2410ac11 patch.

Hi, we're working on a stackable versioning file system for 2.4.x. Versioning can easily create lots of files for a file that gets modified frequently, and our current design puts all versions of a file in the same directory as the main file. We are therefore evaluating how stable and efficient different combinations of file systems would be in this scenario. We've run our versionfs on

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

Hi Maybe you allready fixed this problem but here goes: with ext3-0.9.10 and linux-2.4.10-SMP I get a hang doing the following: # mkdir test # cd test # rmdir ../test # ls There are no problems in ext3-0.9.12 and linux-2.4.10-ac11. Regards -- Lars Munch P.S. plz cc me, as I'm not on the list.

Hi folks, I successfully installed EXT3 on my non-SMP system. This is a (single) P3-450 with kernel 2.4.10-ac11 with the ext3-2.4-0.9.12-2410 patch applied. Works like a jiffy, although I only converted a single disc (and a not really important one too)! (Oh and this is a SuSE 7.0 system) I'd like to note that the Util-Linux installation is pretty hard to do and can go horribly wrong. In

I've not been happy with the stories about the "stable" 2.4.x kernels. Everywhere I read people saying "not for production use". Would you recommend adding ext3 to 2.2.19 (ext3-0.0.7a) or moving to 2.4.1x and using ext3 there (ext3-0.9.12)? -- -IAN! Ian! D.

Hello, The 0.9.9 2.4.10pre4 patch doesn't apply. There are 5 rejects. The first three are easy to fix, but the fourth in vmscan.c will be very difficult without being a developer. The fifth I am not sure about. This brings up the fact that many of us are using ext3 and have to patch every time a new kernel comes out. I really think we need to strong arm Linus or something and get

Does anyone know if the 2.4.10-ac11 ext3 patch applies cleanly to 2.4.10-ac12? If so, do you think it's safe to use? Thanks!

The problem was first seen with R/Sweave (#c0) then reproduced directly with cairo (#c10) and was eventually traced to freetype.

Hi, I have a detailed question about ordered data writes. Suppose we (i.e. intermezzo) does a transaction, which is closed and then followed by an ordered write. Let's assume the ordered write doesn't require new allocation metadata. Is the write still postponed until the first transaction has committed? As far as I can see, prepare_write always starts a transaction, but I'm

Will there be a patch of the latest version of ext3 for kernel 2.4.10 forthcoming? -- David Hollister Driversoft Engineering: http://devicedrivers.com Digital Audio Resources: http://digitalaudioresources.org

Hi there, I'm new to ext3, so I hope you won't find my question to be stupid. I also hope this isn't the 1,000,000th time someone posts it. My problem is the following: I converted my ext2 systems to ext3 using tune2fs -j /dev/sda2 (or 5 for my /home, 2 is my root) Then I modified fstab and put ext3 for each. After a reboot, the mount command says they are mounted as ext3. But when I

An EXT3 filesystem technically isn't supposed to require an fsck, correct? Well, as per my last email re: EXT3 Crash?! I ran an fsck on a couple of my LVMs. It said they were clean, but then I decided to be 100% sure and force an fsck. Error after Error after Error after Error. I wound up losing almost half the data on my LVM due to all the errors. What's the real deal? Am I doing
