similar to: Does patch for 2.4.13-pre6 work on 2.4.13 as well?

An ext3 patch for the latest Linus kernel is at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ The changes are quite small: - Tided up some code now that quotas in Linus and -ac kernels are synced up. - Fix a race which can cause a null-pointer deref in ext3_writepage(). This bug has been there for a long time, but only manifested in 2.3.13-pre for some reason. I've tested this pretty

Ah, Mondays. The following oops happened after approximately eleven days of uptime. The machine was not under any particular load at the time. Following a forced reboot, all filesystems replayed the journal successfully. Relevant log entries leading up to the oops: Nov 4 04:54:08 localhost kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Nov 4 04:54:08 localhost kernel: 03:02: rw=1,

Hi, I just wanted to compile my kernel 2.4.13 with the ext3-2.4.13-pre6 patch, but it doesn't work. It seems, that the patching failes by replacing some things in a textfile. Does anyone of you know, if there is a upcoming solution for this? Kind regards Jan Albrecht -- Jan Albrecht Phone: +49-5241-80-88404 System Consultant UNIX/NT Fax:

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.

Hello I just tested my pxelinux installation with 5.00-pre6. For the installation I did first the same steps as I did with 4.05. I copied the following files out of the archive into my /tftpboot folder: syslinux-5.00-pre6/core/pxelinux.0 syslinux-5.00-pre6/com32/menu/menu.c32 syslinux-5.00-pre6/memdisk/memdisk With only this files, it was not working and I also had to copy this two

Hiya, Now that 2.4.13 has been release, any word on how stable ext3 is on this? Hope they haven't broken anything in the vm again....;) I'm currently running 2.4.8 and I'm very happy with it and given the nightware over the past few releases, just wanted to find out what the state-of-play is at the moment. -=David=

Most excellent! The pre-compiled syslinux6.03-pre6 binaries work great! I'm able to load syslinux.efi and all necessary support libs. I get my expected syslinux boot menu. I've used syslinux 5 / vesamenu for yrs (Legacy PXE boots). So I know my way around from here. Thanks Gene & Feri. And thanks Peter, for making me feel better -- it's the TFTP protocol that's bizarre, I

Hi, My gateway/firewall/mailserver machine has been running 2.4.13 for a day or so now. Its basically a stock Linus kernel + ext3-0.9.13 patch (for -pre6, with the rej fixed).

I have decided to make SYSLINUX 2.10-pre6 a release candidate. Please test it out if you can; if it works OK I will release it as 2.10 some time in the middle of the week. Thanks! -hpa

I have, hopefully, found and fixed the issue with non-kernel binaries that appeared in 3.35. As a result, I have pushed out 3.36-pre6 and am classifying it as a release candidate. Please try it out, especially if you have had problems with 3.35. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

Hi, just tried 1.73-pre6 pxelinux: - booting linux works - memdisk with 1.44M Dos image works - the 'kbdmap'-parameter fails: [..] Unknown keyword in config file. Missing parameter in config file. boot: - and it doesn't remap any keys. I tried 1.66 with the same config file and it works, it accepts 'kbdmap' and also remaps the keys. Regards, Josef

Hello everyone, I'm new to the list and I hope I'm not repeating something that was already asked for. I had been using the stock kernel that came with Mandrake 8.1 which is kernel 2.4.8-26mdk (not sure what things are applied to a stock 2.4.8) I have my root partition /dev/hda1 on ext3 Mandrake took care of all this, by putting the ext3 module in initrd. I just dl'ed 2.4.13

It seems that at least SYSLINUX 1.73-pre4 and -pre5 had some very serious bugs in it, so here is a SYSLINUX 1.73-pre6 to test out; don't be surprised if there are more in short order... :) ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa
