similar to: ext3-0.9.10 hang with kernel 2.4.10

I am trying to compile 2.4.10-ac11 w/ the ext3-2.4-0.9.12-2410ac11 patch. I'm getting unresolved symbols w/ ext3 module: cd /lib/modules/2.4.10-ac11; \ mkdir -p pcmcia; \ find kernel -path '*/pcmcia/*' -name '*.o' | xargs -i -r ln -sf ../{} pcmcia if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.4.10-ac11; fi depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in

An ext3 update for Alan's latest kernel is at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ The version of ext3 in -ac kernels currently stands at 0.9.6, so this is a fairly large diff. However most of this code has had a decent amount of external testing via the 0.9.9 patch. The changelog since 0.9.6 is below. Please test it if you can, and all being well we shall ask Alan to merge it a

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.

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!

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 have ported syslinux to win2k/winxp. It is attached. It has been tested with floppies and flashcards, but not on harddisks. On harddisks I'm not sure if I should use \\.\PHYSICALDRIVEX or \\.\X: as arguments to CreateFile (I'm no windows wiz) and I do not currently have a system to test this on. The program can be compiled using mingw or in cygwin using the option -mno-cygwin

Hello ext3-users, We have a RH71 machine running 2.4.16 kernel with e2fsprogs 1.25. I noticed many of these errors in our logs.

Hi, After mounting -t ext2 an ext3 partition, working with, do I have to recreate .journal when I remount the partition as ext3 ? Thanks ! Liu

A new work-in-progress release of the Extended Attribute and ACL patches for ext3 is now available at http://www.moldybread.net/patches/kernel-2.4/ This release is against linux-2.4.10-ac12 with ext3-2.4-0.9.12. Status: Extended attribute sharing now seems stable. Performance problems appear to have been addressed. Known Problems: Error message: "VFS: brelse: Trying to free free

Hi, With kernel 2.4.10, when I do $ mkdir foo; cd foo; rmdir ../foo; ls then ls becomes zombie. $ ps xau|grep ls liu 596 0.0 0.0 148 88 ? D 12:03 0:00 ls This does not happen with 2.4.10 on an ext2 filesystem, nor with 2.4.9/ext3. The command cd instead of ls is OK. Distribution is Slackware 8.0 and the kernels are stock ones. Liu

Hello, Using Dovecot's deliver MDA, all mails are stored with the line "From <sender> <date>" appended. When forwarding these mails as attachements, the recipients get the source code. When Postfix delivers emails directly in the Maildirs, this first line is not appended, and there is no problem when forwarding the mails. Why is this line appended by deliver ? Is

Hi I switched over to ext3 a few weeks ago because it was faster to boot when the power has failed (and it fails every day or so...) I was using 2.4.9, everything was right, all my partitions were ext3, including root : VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly. I switched over to 2.4.10, with the right patch, and now : VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly. whatever I try to do... even

Hello all, We recently switched to kernel 2.4.10 from kernel 2.4.4, and in doing so also added the EXT3 patch 2.4-0.9.10-2410. Everything seems to work great, however I have been able to reproduce a crash over and over again. Here it is: #!/bin/sh mke2fs -j /dev/hda2 mount /dev/hda2 /mnt About 75% of the time, mount will result in a kernel Oops, the crash seems to be about something in

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

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

Ughs, I'm not dying to wait months...but if it thats the way it is, then its the way it is. Tends to be so many commits in a day it seemed it was being lost in the noise/clique. I did try to add some notes to the bug tracker, but new logins are disabled, and the email to get one never replied...but I guess that's another topic! Thanks again, definitely alleviated some frustrations.

Has anyone succeeded in running Pegasus Mail with a version of Wine newer than 0.9.8? With Wine 0.9.9 I experienced a termination of Pegasus Mail every time I closed a message composition window. This was not "fixed" in Wine 0.9.10. With Wine 0.9.11 and Wine 0.9.12 Pegasus Mail appears to be unable to display anything other than its startup window with the flying horse and the
