Subject: ext3/ext2 compatibility; time for ext3 in mainline kernel?
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2001 08:36:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3BA76A01.C2B5E701@kegel.com> (raw)
I installed Red Hat 7.2beta, and chose its nifty ext3 option when
setting up my partitions. But now when I boot into vanilla 2.4.9,
some files are mysteriously missing, notably /usr/bin/id and
/usr/lib/libreadline.so.3, judging from the error messages that spew
when I try to do anything.
I guess either a) there's a bug, or b) ext3 isn't so compatible with ext2
that you can just boot into an ext2-only kernel and expect things to work.
If b) is true, I'd really really like vanilla 2.4.11 or so to support ext3.
Isn't it about time?
