similar to: ext3-0.0.5d released

Hi all, ext3-0.0.5c is now up at: ftp.uk.linux.org:/pub/linux/sct/fs/jfs/ and ftp.*.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/people/sct/ext3/ The most important part of this release is the e2fsprogs: e2fsck now supports the journal changes for metadata-only journaling. Ted, I've changed around the use of jfs* include files in e2fsprogs quite heavily here. In each build directory --- the lib/ext2fs

Hello all. I am currently using ext3 0.0.5d with great success. I am a bit conflicted about what to tell the system regarding my root filesystem however. I have my root filesystem configured and working as an ext3 filesystem, but it is/was not without some fraught. Using RedHat 7.0, if you simply create your journal on the root file- system, figure out it's inode number, issue a lilo -R

Hi all, I've pushed my current set of ext3 diffs (against Marcelo's current tree) to http://people.redhat.com/sct/patches/ext3-2.4/dev-20030314/ This includes: 00-merged/ diffs recently merged into 2.4 10-core-fixes-other/ misc fixes/tweaks from akpm, adilger 11-core-fixes-sct/ misc fixes/tweaks from sct 20-tytso-updates/ Ted's recent updates 21-updates-sct/ recent sct diffs

Hi all, ext3-0.0.6b is now available at the usual places: ftp.*.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/people/sct/ext3/ and ftp.uk.linux.org:/pub/linux/sct/fs/jfs/ The only significant change in this release is the fix to the orphan list recovery, and that fix also affects e2fsprogs, so please pick up the new e2fsprogs from the same directory when you grab the ext3 release. I've put tarballs,

I've been thinking recently that we should re-enable DIR_INDEX in mke2fs by default. When it first came out, we had done this and were bitten by a few bugs in the code. However, this code has been in heavy use for several thousand filesystem years in Lustre, if not elsewhere, and I'm inclined to think it is pretty safe these days. Likewise, RHEL/FC have had RESIZE_INODE as a standard

I am trying to obtain adjusted means and standard errors for a three way ANOVA I have three effects, two continuous; fire frequency and annual precipitation, and one categorical; soil type in an unbalanced design. I am testing the effect of annual precipition (AP), soil type (ST), and fire frequency (FF) on stem count (SCt) My data table looks as such: ST FF AP SCt 3 Coy

Hi, Does anybody have a good tip of how to treat bimodal data to perform statistical analyses? My data set ranges from -1 to 1 (any values are posssible in between) and most data are either close to -1 or close to 1. They are the results of a two choice experiment where individuals could choose more than once in either direction and scores were calculated. Simone Simone Immler

Hi, ext3-0.0.6a has been uploaded to ftp.uk.linux.org:/pub/linux/sct/fs/jfs/ext3-0.0.6a.tar.gz and ftp.*.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/people/sct/ext3/ext3-0.0.6a.tar.gz This version changes the way dirty buffers are marked to protect against device drivers which might block in the ll_rw_block() function. (Loop and lvm are examples.) It should also fix a rare but persistent report of

Hi! A few weeks ago we upgraded 9 large webservers from ext2 to ext3. Since then we've seen very strange behavior on several of the machines. Permissions of files are repeatedly changed at random occasions. Several times, ownership of files have been totally mangled. Several users have logged in to discover that all their files suddenly are owned by another user! At two of these occasions

got the following in the freshmeat newsletter. the page doesn't say anything about it. also the sct dir on kernel.org still shows the WIP version... [007] - e2fsprogs 1.20 (Default)   by P. Adami (http://freshmeat.net/users/ramirez/)   Monday, May 28th 2001 19:39 The ext2fsprogs package contains essential ext2 filesystem utilities which consists of e2fsck, mke2fs, debugfs, dumpe2fs, tune2fs,

I haven't seen any info on this so I thought I'd ask. Is there support for shared IMAP folders? Quite a few people at work subscribe to the Linux Kernel Mailing List. I thought it would make more sense if there could be a shared LKML folder that they all could use. This would save disk space. Is this posssible? If so how? I am also looking into the idea of doing a local newsgroup of

Hello! I'm using i868 (Pentium III) machine running Windows 2000 and running Linux, installed on dedicated partition, in parallel via VMWare. Linux config is RedHat 7.0 (kernel ) As I'm pretty new to Linux, I'd like to know exact procedure how to install ext3 filesystem support (also which packages do I need). My kernel config is as follows: kernel-headers-2.2.14-5.0

I'd really like an option "noprivate" or somesuch within the 'authentication' specification which would not require a password for listener requests originating from a private network (192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x or 172.16.x.x, etc ). Is this posssible? -- ************************************************************************ * Dave Serls

For some time now I have been puzzled as to why certain portions of my system boot were quite slow -- but only after journal recoveries. I was fearing that there was some ugly interaction between the recovery and the use of the journal shortly afterward but alas that is not the case. So just in case anybody else is seeing this problem and decides to try to hunt it down, let me save you some

Hello, Does anyone know if it is posssible to insert a picture (ps or jpg for example) in documentation files with Rd extension. I guess it's impossible but maybe there is a trick. Thank you!

Hi, I'm about to roll out a whole bunch of Redhat Enterprise 4 workstations and have run into problems cloning from the original. Normally I would use ghost (v7.5) because it does a nice job when cloning to a different sized disk.Unfortunately it comes up with read error 29004. Looking around it seems that Symantec don't support Fedora Core 3 (with Ghost v.8 - don't know if v.9 works

Hello All, I have a production server that is running 2.2.20. This server *has* to be up 24X7 - what I'm wondering is: 1) Is ext3 on 2.2.20 rock stable? Or, would you recommend that I just stay with ext2? 2) I have looked far and wide for a the ext3 patch for 2.2.20 - where can I find it? 3) Were are the e2fsprogs that are appropriate to run with the 2.2.X kernel series? Thanks,

Hi, Stephen and Jeff, Thanks. But the problem got debugged&fixed, the answer was post on fedora-list about 2 weeks ago. The problem is: the /etc/blkid.tab file works as an old unappropriate disk partitions cache for fsck|blkid commands when stystem image is installed to a different arch (scsi->ide) machine, the old cache will mislead fsck|blkid at the first run and only the first run,
