Subject: [PATCH] 2.5.41 qnx4fs (2/2): recognize qnx6 file-systems
Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2002 21:30:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021007193014.GC1568@errol.alarsen.net> (raw)
Hi Linus,
this patch (forward ported from 2.4.19) replaces the check for the QNX
boot-sector signature by a check for another signature in the superblock
(the (invariant) name of the root dir) - this allows us to mount
partitions created with QNX 6.1 (that don't have the boot-sector
signature we used to check for), without breaking existing
functionality.
The corresponding updates to fs/Config.help have somehow already found
their way into your tree...
Please apply.
Cheers
Anders (maintainer)
