Hi,
I got my system frozen when copying my root partition
to a loop device
dd if=/dev/zero of=root bs=1k count=100k
mke2fs -m 0 root
mount -o loop root /mnt/disk
tar -xf root.tgz -z
(root.tgz is small compressed backup root partition)
cd root
cp -a * /mnt/disk
(the source partition is ext3, target ext2)
it runs for a while and system hang.No message, no
oopses etc..
It did not happen with 2.4.6 with ext3 version 0.9.5
patch.
what is the cause?
Regards
=====
S.KIEU
