This is only needed for 32-bit kernels.
Ahhhhhh, that makes sense. As I was configuring the kernel for LFS 7.3, I thought: "Why would I need support for large block devices? I only have a 160GB hard drive." But I like how much faster disk checks are with ext4, so I used that option in the kernel. I didn't realize at the time that ext4 is geared primarily for large block devices. Thanks for the tip. I'll rebuild my kernel. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
