As expected, recreating qemubuilder initial image with your ext2 patch applied made thinks work. Did not get accurate timings, but seems indeed to be faster than using ext3. Since this change can cause old images to stop working, may be is interesting to put it as a documented configurable option, so when reading documentation, users know what to do. Do not know what upstream thinks about this. For now I will stay for my personal use with a patched qemubuilder with your three patches applied. Will let you know if I find further problems. Your patches were really useful, thanks a lot. Regards, -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
