Title: RE: [Ocfs2-users] How do I remove old devices

Thanks for this info Sunil,

But I run on Redhat AS 4 and bvi is not available immediately.
I tried to use the source, but the one available on http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/bvi/bvi-1.3.2.src.tar.gz seem to have a problem:

When I run the gunzip command as told on the installation page of the web site:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# gunzip -c bvi-1.3.2.src.tar.gz | tar xvf
gunzip: bvi-1.3.2.src.tar.gz: not in gzip format
tar: Old option `f' requires an argument.
Try `tar --help' for more information.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]#
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# gunzip -c bvi-1.3.2.src.tar.gz
gunzip: bvi-1.3.2.src.tar.gz: not in gzip format

So I am stuck.  :-(

Any other idea welcomed.  An other binary editor (could not find any on redhat)? An other solution?

Thanks in advance,
       
Philippe Andries

ocfs2console just scans the partitions in /proc/partitions and looks for the superblock on the 3rd block.

Easiest would be to use bvi (or any binary editor), search for the signature OCFSV2, and change it.

# bvi -s 10240 /dev/sda1
/OCFSV2
