Hey, guys. I have a problem when installing syslinux 4.06, and I'd be grateful if someone could tell me how to solve the problem. My task - to install the bootloader on the virtual machine image. The image contains the MBR and the only partition with the file system ext4. The file system contains all the files for the guest OS. To install bootloader into the image of the guest OS, I use the

Hi all. I''ve got a domU that exists in a sparse file image, I''d like to now use this on a physical partition (loopback performance issues). Is there an a easy way to do this ?

Hi, I wanted to create a new btrfs fs for my backups. When trying to mkfs.btrfs for that device, I''m getting "error checking /dev/loop2 mount status" With strace I see where the problem is: lstat("/dev/disk/by-id/ata-INTEL_SSDSA2M160G2GC_CVPO939201JX160AGN-par", 0x7fffa30b3cf0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) The problem is there is something missing

Hallo, linux-btrfs, First I create an array of 2 disks with mkfs.btrfs -d raid0 -m raid1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdd1 and mount it at /srv/MM. Then I fill it with about 1,6 TByte. And then I add /dev/sde1 via btrfs device add /dev/sde1 /srv/MM btrfs filesystem balance /srv/MM (it run about 20 hours) Then I work on it, copy some new files, delete some old files - all works well. Only df

How do I mount a partition that is in an image file? I have a file called centos.img that has 3 partitions in the file. I need to copy data to the third partition on that image file. I have seen things about a loop back device (which is fine) but then it talked about an offset parameter and I dont know what that is or more importantly what number to use. I hope I'm on the right track. How

Hi! I used to have arch linux running on 1 btrfs partition (sda1, incl. /boot). When switching to 3.2.5 recently the system fails to boot: (after udevd) /etc/rc.sysinit: line 15: 117 Bus error mountpoint -q /proc and so on, no idea. It used to boot with 3.2.4, but 1) I obviously had some corruption in the tree, when I tried to delete a certain file I hit e.g. "kernel BUG at

Continuing on with my earlier post . . . after looking through code of JBD, is the following perhaps the difference in why the md5 values differ; When a journalled filesystem that uses jbd is mounted the journal b_count is incremented by one? *EVEN* if the volume was mounted read only, this b_count is still increased by one? curious as ever! lt __________________________________ Do you

I''m trying to create a multi-device filesystem on top of regular files (not actual disks), and mount that to a loopback device. For a filesystem created on a single file, it works fine, but for a filesystem across multiple files, it doesn''t. dd if=/dev/zero of=img1 bs=4096 count=65536 dd if=/dev/zero of=img2 bs=4096 count=65536 dd if=/dev/zero of=img3 bs=4096 count=65536 dd

Hi, I have Xen 3.3.1 dom0 on Debian with 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 kernel and I had to "xm destroy" my domU.

Hallo, linux-btrfs, please delete the option "-L" (for labelling) in "mkfs.btrfs", in some configurations it doesn''t work as expected. My usual way: mkfs.btrfs -d raid0 -m raid1 /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd ... One call for some devices. Wenn I add the option "-L mylabel" then each device gets the same label, and therefore some other programs

I am trying to install CentOS from an ISO image file but the installer does not see a CD-ROM drive. The VNC viewer works but the CentOS installer indicates "Unable to find any devices of the type needed for this installation type." Then it prompts with "[Select driver] [Use a driver disk] [Back]". I have tried several variations of the "disk" paramater, all

I''ve got a btrfs on an sd card, which I''m using as the root fs on a beagle. That''s not the problem :) The machine I generate my images on has an internal sd reader, and I also have a usb card reader. After creating the fs on the internal reader, I ended up plugging it in on the external reader. internal: sdd external: sdh mount /dev/sdh2 /mnt -t btrfs > mount:
