Server :: Mounting Ext3 File System As Ext2 On Slackware With Custom Build Kernel?
May 16, 2010I just rebuild the kernel for slackware 13, everything works, but root file system which is ext3 is mounted as ext2. Normally I've build ext3, ext4 and so on as modules, not in the kernel... but if I do this, then the kernel mounts the file system as ext2, which is build in the kernel. I also modified rc.modules so I can make sure that ext3,ext4,jbd are loaded, but it doesnt work.

General :: Cannot Copy File Over 16,843,020 Kb On Ext2 Or Ext3 Partition
Aug 26, 2010i m not able to copy a file over 16 gigs on an EXT2 or EXT3 partition. Is there a way to do this. I even tried to split my iso file too. I splitted my iso file in 4 files then copy them on the ext2 or ext3 partition. But as soon as I was trying to join the files together it never went over 16 gigs. Actually it stops at 16,843,020 kb exactly. is there a limit for those partitions or is there an another way to see my 20gigs iso file in one piece?

Jul 12, 2010My Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 with 6x partitions (/, /boot,/home, /usr, /var, /tmp) of 6.0 GB IDE Hardisk was working quite fine.

Ubuntu :: EXT2 Vs EXT3
Apr 23, 2010I am planning on dual-booting Windows XP and Ubuntu on a new laptop, and because I have a program that lets me mount an ext2 filesystem on Windows, I was thinking of installing Ubuntu with ext2 instead of ext3. I am concerned, however, that it might open up a security risk for my Ubuntu partition. Would this cause a problem? (In case it's relevant, I use AVG Free antivirus in Windows.)

Nov 5, 2010I use 8GB USB sticks for backup of Ubuntu 10.04. I have had a variety of problems with ext3 format (security tar file not readable, etc) and have reformatted to ext2, so far without a problem.
But - am I missing something by not using ext3 (or even ext4)? Should I be sticking with ext3 and try to resolve the problems - bearing in mind that as the USB stick is my backup I need it to be secure!
Ubuntu :: Filesystem Ext2 - Ext3 And Ext4 ?
Apr 30, 2010I run an upgrade and an update on a lucid lynx beta 2. --- got no problems. but about the filesystems i have some questions because it seems for me that at every system boot the system will run an fsck. somtimes it's shown up, somtimes not. but in /var/log/messages and in syslog
I have always following messages ( occured in beta 2 too ).
But first before i continue - here my disk layout:
And here my filesystem types:
This is my problem because those values are seems to be static ! ( note: this partiton is mounted but not in use ) and last not least: the drive is an external usb scsi disk. but on the other side lucid lynx is running fine on my box.
General :: Convert Ext3 To Ext2?
Mar 28, 2011I would like to convert my /tmp and /boot partitions from Ext3 to Ext2 on my Arch Linux setup. I don't see any use in having journaling for either partition. I want to make sure that I have the right steps lined up so could someone verify that this is correct (from a live cd):
Code:
#sudo tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sda7
#sudo e2fsck /dev/sda7
#sudo tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sda5
#sudo e2fsck /dev/sda5
I then edit /etc/fstab to reflect these changes (ext3 to ext2 for both lines)
Does it matter what order I do it in (/dev/sda7 is /tmp and /dev/sda5 is /boot).

General :: /var On SD Card :: Ext2 .vs. Ext3 .vs. Jfs .vs. Jffs2?
Apr 22, 2011We are running debian off of an SD card and want to know what's best for /var?
- Plenty of room on 2GB SD card, so do we, make /var as large as possible (everything else is read only) to reduce block overwrites, or do we make /var as small as possible, hopefully reducing the load 'pdflush' places on the 200 Mhz system?
That said, why not ext2? Is there damage that can happen in /var due to insta-crash or power loss that will prevent proper system function? We heard ext4 is more optimized, but ext4 on 2.6.29, not sure.
If we must use a journaled file system for /var, then which is lowest load on system, or "better": jfs, ext3, jffs2 ...

Fedora :: Hard Disk Data Recovery Of Ext2 And Ext3
Jul 1, 2010I am student of MCS and working on final project. I am the user of windows xp. I am new in Linux. I am working on a project that titles "Hard disk data Recovery of ext2 and ext3 in linux". In windows, including dos.h and bios.h header files in program of c language I can send interrupt to bios and access most of the devices like parallel port, hard disks etc. But problem is that there is no bios.h and dos.h files in gcc. Now how can I access my hard drive using c program. How can I call int13h interrupt in linux or there is any other function in the linux to access the hard disk. In fact I want to access sectors of my hard disk using c language program. How can I do it?
View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Change Umask For Files Created In Ext2/ext3
Oct 28, 2009I have ext3 partition mounted on /mnt/shared/ as follows
Code:
Permissions above are of the actual mounted fs.
Goal is to have all files created on the fs
1) to belong to group 'users'
2) to have this groups permissions set to rw (rwx for directories) so that all users who belong to group 'users' have full read/write access to data and everyone else to have only read access.
Now because of setgid bit (s) in group permissions every file created has group 'users' and additionally setgid bit is set for directories. Because every users umask by default (on my system) is set to 0022 all created files will have permissions 644 for ordinary files and 755 for directories.
Net result of above means that users A and B who both belong to group 'users' won't be able to modify files created by the other.
So how can I make files created on the fs to be created always with umask 0002 WITHOUT changing default umask for users that is used elsewhere (like in their home directory) ?
OpenSUSE Install :: Boot Error Because E2fsck Thinks Ext3 Filesystem Is Ext2 ?
Jan 19, 2010During the file system check of an ext3 partition at boot I get the following output:
The super-block could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is still valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate super-block:
I'm then forced to login in as root and given the following prompt:
I'm reluctant to do as advised by the output and run e2fsck -b because it is not an ext2 filesystem.
Although I can still enter runlevel 5, it doesn't seem to recognise mouse and keyboard input in KDE so my system is effectively redundant at the mo. For this reason any short term workarounds are welcome, but a fix is needed. This problem is part of a longer saga to do with recovering a Windows Vista installation which started failing to boot. I have used both Vista and SUSE tools to try and recover my bootloader to no avail, and this has been the result. If more detail about this is needed please ask and I can explain what I have done.
General :: Recover A Deleted File Using The Ext3 File System?
Jan 10, 2011I used the ext3 format when I formatted my partition prior to installing Ubuntu10.10. I had accidentally deleted a file and began the process to get it back. It wasn't critical but helpful to recover the file. To make a long story short I ran into to some unexpected road blocks. I tried to use PhotoRec to get the job done but with no success.
I'm just looking down the road in the event I might have to recover something important.If it would be better going back to the Fat32 file system I would rather do it sooner than later. Just as a side note I am dual booting between linux and windows.
Ubuntu :: Corrupted EXT3 File System?
Feb 9, 2011I am using Ubuntu since release 8.10, but it is first time when i can`t solve problem
when i tried to create new NTFS partition on unallocated disk space with Paragon Partition Manager (damn, that was stupid). Process was aborted with error (later i finally made it with Gparted without problems)
After reboot mine Ubuntu say:
Code:
Errors were found while checking the disk drive for /
Press F to attempt to fix errors, I to ignore, S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery. I pressed "F" but that had help only for a boot and doesn`t really fix error :`(
Later i booted from liveCD and had checked partition (/dev/sdb1; file system - ext3) with gparted (result - aborted fixing process with error) Now i can`t even boot from that partition and even mount it from other linux system.
mine fdisk -l
Code:
/dev/sdb1 * 1 5957 47849568 83 Linux - problematic partition (unmountable)
/dev/sdb2 5958 29983 192988845 7 HPFS/NTFS

PhotoRec recover most of my files, but i need complete partition.

Hardware :: Data Recovery On HDD - EXT3 File System
Aug 29, 2009I accidentally formatted a HDD when I meant to format a USB thumb drive. The HDD is a 250GB drive that had about 180GB of data in the EXT3 format. I was actually attempting to make a bootable USB thumb drive with TRK (Trinity Rescue Kit). Kind of funny/ironic to mess up a drive while trying to make a rescue disk. Anyway, as soon as I realized what had happened, I pulled the drive out of the computer to make sure I didn't do anything else stupid to it. I have been searching for some way to recover and haven't really found much. There are a lot of programs to get Windows data back, but I haven't seen anything specific on the EXT3 file system.
