Existe um binario do kernel 2.2.19 e 2.2.20 ja pronto para ext3 que pode
ser instalado tranquilamente no potato. Alem dele, e necessario
atualizar o e2fsprograms para fazer o tune2fs -j.

Alternativamente, o kernel 2.2.19 original do potato pode ser patcheado

ReiserFS in Debian 2.2 r0

Hello, All.

Does Debian 2.2 r0 support the ReiserFS? How can i do it? I can't find
this option in fdisk, but kernel 2.4.9 support it.

  Reiser warns to avoid 2.4.9, put recent .10-pre patches work fine.  I am
using .10-pre9 that seems to work well thusfar.  I did not need to use
additional patches from Reiser: whatever they submitted, Linus
incorporated into the 10-pre* kernels by now. 
  In fdisk, you must give the partition type 0x83: Linux Native
(this includes ext2fs, Reiser, etc).
  Then use the ReiserFS tools to format your partition for ReiserFS.
I don't think there is an up-to-date Debian package: get them from
http://www.reiserfs.org/
  I guess this means you need to install the tools on a current system
with a 2.4.10 kernel, hang the new disk in the system, format it, and make
sure you boot with a 2.4.10 kernel when you want to install Debian on the
new disk.

you mean even the userspace tools are with the kernel?  or should you
need to get it from www.namesys.com still?

what is wrong with the 2.4.9 kernel and reisefs?  so far the only
problem is see are 1) there's an error message during shutdown about
an unknown mount option and 2) reiserfs runs terribly slow on my box.
not to worried there as i'm using xfs for my potato.

No, the tools come from Namesys.  I said that I did not need to apply
additional patches to Linus's kernel: I found that all the bugfixes that
you can download from Namesys have already been incorporated by Linus.

I too run 2.4.9 and reiserfs.  I am not sure if memory management
performance problems would influence how well reiserfs works in
combination with 2.4.9.  However, this is a list of reiserfs patches
for 2.4.9:

( taken from
ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiserfs-for-2.4/2.4.9.sent)

 This directory contains patches that were sent to Linus for inclusion
 into next official kernel.
 
 Currently all patches are against 2.4.10-pre2.
 Patches in this directory are subject to change without any notice.
 
 A-panic-in-reiserfs_read_super.patch [ACCEPTED in 2.4.10-pre4]
 this patch allows reiserfs to cope with an attempt to mount file-system
 with corrupted super-block: reiserfs stores both version-dependent magic
 and version itself in a super-block. This patch just returns error
 rather than panics if they don't match.
 
 B-journal-replay.patch [ACCEPTED in 2.4.10-pre4]
 following patch by Chris Mason allows reiserfs to fail gracefully when
 io error is hit during journal replay: just return error in stead of
 panicking.
 
 C-old-format.patch [ACCEPTED in 2.4.10-pre4]
 this patch fixes bugs in the support for reiserfs format 3.5:
 file-systems of this format are now mountable and convertible.
 
 D-clear-i_blocks.patch [ACCEPTED in 2.4.10-pre4]
 This patch sets inode.i_blocks to zero on deletion of reiserfs
 file. This in particular cures hard to believe bug when saving file in
 EMACS caused top to loose sight of all processes:
  . reiserfs didn't properly cleared i_blocks when removing
symlinks. Actually -7 was inserted into unsigned i_blocks field. This
didn't usually hurt because file is being deleted;
  . inode is reused for procfs and neither get_new_inode() nor
proc_read_inode() cleared i_blocks;
  . now procfs inode has huge i_blocks field;
  . top calls stat on it and libc wrapper returns EOVERFLOW, as i_blocks
doesn't fit into user-level struct.
  . top sees nothing.
Alexander Viro and other people proposed that in stead i_blocks
should be cleared in generic VFS code.
 
 E-pathrelse.patch [ACCEPTED in 2.4.10-pre4]
This patch adds missing call to pathrelse() to error path in 
reiserfs_do_truncate(). Without pathrelse(), buffers involved
into balancing by some process remain locked and can deadlock 
another process.
 
 F-reiserfs_get_block-cleanup.patch [ACCEPTED in 2.4.10-pre4]
This patch fixes several bugs in reiserfs_get_block():
 . race condition, when code took block number from indirect item
   without re-checking that this item is still there after blocking
   call. This causes file-system corruption on writing into hole;
 . uses stronger condition to check whether to start new transaction;
 . increase amount of space reserved into transaction (jbegin_count)
   to accommodate for updating of inode on disk (reiserfs_update_sd());
 . cast block to loff_t;
 . move (block  0) check to the top of the function;
 . remove obsolete REISERFS_CHECK around pop_journal_writer();
 . add warning number and \n in warning message;
 
 G-blockalloc-for-disk-90%full.patch [ACCEPTED in 2.4.10-pre4]
This patch improves behavior of reiserfs block allocator when free
space is low. By default reiserfs uses so called border algorithm
that reserves first 10% of disk for formatted nodes that is,
nodes of reiserfs tree. With this patch this distinction is dropped
when free space goes below 10% of total disk space. This has been
found to improve performance.


So I guess I'll have to patch my 2.4.9 kernel or go to 2.4.10 ... :)

Btw, does anybody know if the reiserfs developers still recommend not running
reiserfs on Software-RAID partitions? 

(I know this is RTFM, but just checking if somebody has read this
up already) :)

No me suena ninguna utilidad que haga la conversión, así que lo normal es andar

About ReiserFS for Debian (and others).

2000-07-28 Thread Morten Liebach

Hi all

 Some days ago I asked about running Debian on ReiserFS, and was told it
 could be done.
 That was true, I now have installed Debian on ReiserFS, and written a
 little piece about it on:
 
http://home1.stofanet.dk/liebach/reiserfs.html.
 
 Enjoy!

tar has known issues with reiserfs; it's possible you tickled one of
those.

   I'm contemplating installing debian on ReiserFS like this:
  
  1: Install Debian.
  2: Patch  compile kernel with ReiserFS support.
  3: Backup the partitons [1] one after one and reformat them with

I recently installed potato and decided to make /usr and /home reiserfs.
Went single-user to do this, copied the data off and on -- no problems.

Then I tried to extract a tar.gz file from an NFS mount onto my (reiser)
home partition. Worked fine, but when I tried to build the application
(dosemu-1.0.1) the configure script got stuck and filled up the entire 2.5
gig partition. 

I extracted the same file to /var/ (which was still ext2) and of course

ReiserFS with Debian (Potato)?

2000-07-23 Thread Morten Liebach
Hi all.

 I'm contemplating installing debian on ReiserFS like this:

1: Install Debian.
2: Patch  compile kernel with ReiserFS support.
3: Backup the partitons [1] one after one and reformat them with
   ReiserFS, restore from backup.
4: Be very happy! :-)

I know that /boot has to be ext2fs, and I'll prolly install 2 linuxen to
work on one from the other. That way I can convert / to ReiserFS too.

The problem is: will things break right and left because of ReiserFS?

I know SuSE give you the choice between ext2 abd reiser at install, and
I have tried it, so I know it's stable, but I don't know how much SuSE
has modified to make it work.

My understanding is that nearly all things WRT disk read/write is
handled by the kernel, so programs don't know what filesystem they're
on. Is that correct?

Has anyone reading this done this before?

I personally plan to write something about it and upload it to my
website if I go ahead and do it, unless someone else has already done
it!

[1]: What should I use for this, I have two HDD's, and will have the
backup on one (6Gig), and work on the other (10Gig). A simple ``cp''
will do, but there might be somthing better, recommendations?

Yes.  I'm running ReiserFS under my /home partition.  It's
particularly nice when I'm booting after an unclean shutdown.  It
takes the ext2 partitions 5 minutes or more to fsck, and the reiserfs
partition of the same size just replays the journal and mounts, all in
about 5 *seconds*.

There are reports of ReiserFS not working with kernel-space NFS and
some problems with tar (because tar depends on certain inode behavior,
which is not present in ReiserFS).  I'm happy with user-space NFS, and
I use afio for backups, which works.  Some people actually recommend
using Samba/smbfs as a replacement for NFS.

Note: you *can* use ReiserFS on your root partition.  It involves
making a boot disk with ReiserFS support compiled into the kernel, and
mounting your root partition with the -notails option.  The latter is
to enable lilo to find the whole kernel -- it may not be necessary if
you use grub instead.

Also Note: I'm using stable ReiserFS, for 2.2.x kernels.  Things are
changing a lot for the 2.4-pre branch.

 [1]: What should I use for this, I have two HDD's, and will have the
 backup on one (6Gig), and work on the other (10Gig). A simple ``cp''
 will do, but there might be somthing better, recommendations?

I used cpio to retain all possible file attributes.  Don't ask about
specifics - I'd have to look it up again on the manpage at this point.
As for the method, mine was essentially identical to what you outlined
above.  One difficulty I ran into was that lilo stopped booting from
the hard drive, and the newest boot disk I had was from Hamm.  Turns
out that the ext2 filesystem has changed since then in a
non-backward-compatible way.  Things got a little hairy, but after a
hamm install on top of Potato, some manual tweaking, and recovery of
my dpkg data from backup tapes, things were smoothed over in a matter
of a couple days.  But that was probably my fault; I wouldn't worry
about it.  (But how nice it would have been to have a working rescue
floppy for Potato at that time!)  As long as you know what to watch
out for, you'll be fine.

I'm pasting below the contents of a recent post to the reiserfs
mailing list that is becoming a reiserfs FAQ.  For more information,
I'd suggest the Reiser web site (which you probably have already
perused) and the mailing list.

Q Reply-To: Dr A V Le Blanc [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Q 
Q I succeeded with little trouble in installing Debian potato with
Q reiserfs as its root partition.  I'll summarise the process for those
Q who are interested.
Q 
Q I created a boot floppy with a kernel supporting reiserfs and
Q a root floppy with the mkfs.reiserfs on it.  I did find it useful
Q to mount and umount each mkfs-ed partition, since it takes a
Q good deal of time for the first install.
Q 
Q I rebooted using my reiserfs kernel but the potato root disk.
Q I then installed as normal, with the following exceptions:
Q 
Q (1)  The Debian install procedure does not know about reiserfs,
Q so I had to mount the various filesystems manually.  Then
Q I picked another item from the menu.  The first time this
Q fails since the install program does not know the root
Q partition is mounted (on target), but then it figures this
Q out and proceeds normally.
Q (2)  The install procedure writes a correct /etc/fstab for all
Q partitions except the root, to which it incorrectly gives
Q a file type of ext2.  Simply edit this before rebooting.
Q (3)  The install procedure installs a kernel which knows nothing
Q about reiserfs.  I just replaced this with my kernel, and
Q put the appropriate modules in /lib/modules.
Q (4)  I use grub instead of Debian's mbr or LILO, so I simply
Q 'dpkg --delete mbr' and install grub before rebooting the
Q first time.  The latest grub supports reiserfs.
Q 
Q I chose to do this because I had a machine with a hardware fault
Q which needed frequent rebooting.  This of course led to a number
Q of corruption problems even with reiserfs, but we eventually
Q ran the problem down to faulty sims (thanks to memcheck-86).
Q To avoid possible problems, I've reinstalled again, again using
Q reiserfs.  The machine has run beautifully ever since.
Q 
Q I've been digging through the mailing list, and seen occasional
Q remarks about FAQs, but no pointer to a reiserfs FAQ.  Can I
Q presume none exists at this time?

reiserfs and debian ...

2000-04-26 Thread Adam Shand

hi.

i saw some articles here the other day about people using reiserfs.  just a
quick question.  are the patches compatible with the patched debian
kernel? 

does anyone know when a journaled filesystem (from what i've read reiserfs
is the most mature one for linux so far) will be included in the default
linux kernel (2.4?), or patched into the debian kernel?

i can do it myself but it sure would be nice not to have to :)
