Don't worry about that change. It won't have any impact on what you're doing.
Doing the commands manually, there is only one difference: ext2: mke2fs -b 4096 ext3: mke2fs -b 4096 -j Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hugo Rivera Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 4:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Adding a new DASD Daniel thank you for your help. Now I'm trying to format the partition /dev/dasdd1 using YaST2. I selected EXT3 and when I click OK the partition type turns from S390 DASD to FLinux Native (Ext3). How can I keep the type S390 DASD for my partition using ext3. Is there some way to manually make an ext3 file???...I only see examples for ext2. There is not a kind of mke2fs command for ext3. Thanks.

If so, add it to the dasd device driver with: "echo add range=204 > /proc/dasd/devices" If not, the guest can't see it for some reason (did it get detached?) > > 0201(ECKD) at ( 94: 0) is dasda : active at blocksize: 4096, 581040 > blocks > , 2269 MB > 0202(ECKD) at ( 94: 4) is dasdb : active at blocksize: 4096, 600840 > blocks > , 2347 MB > 0203(none) at ( 94: 8) is dasdc : unknown After the add range to /proc/dasd/devices you should see a dasdd entry here. Pick up where you left off with the dasdfmt, then fdasd, then make the filesystem on /dev/dasdd1 (or whichever partition) and you should be golden. Don't forget to add the address to your dasd= parameters in your zipl.conf, cd /boot and run zipl so the dasd device is "automatically" enabled the next time you ipl. ~ Daniel ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is the property of Time Inc. or its affiliates.
