Re: [gentoo-user] Resizing ext3

Hi James Im new to the list, so i havent all you first message :( Following the subject, you want to resize an ext3 partition. This is impossible with resize2fs. You can make your ext3 an ext2 partition by removing the "has_journal" feature (tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/partition). It should be safe, i did it few times. You can then resize your filesystem then your partition with a program or with resize2fs & fdisk. Read the resize2fs manual page for more information. You should re-enable the journal after resizing with 'tune2fs -j /dev/partition'. Make sure to make backups to avoid data loss! Charly I think you're right, but as I said, I'm kinda out of my depth, now. ...but, you may want to pay attention to that "needs_recovery" flag: you may want to fsck the partition, and correct any potential errors (if any) before continuing. FYI, the "needs_recovery" flag is normal for any currently mounted filesystem. Bruno, have you tried using resize2fs directly as I suggested previously? -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Is your root filesystem /dev/hda1? If the answer to both is yes, then the initrd line should say: initrd (hd0,0)/boot/fbsplash-gentoo-1024x768 -Richard OK I have tried this as well and still no luck i just keep getting an error about Cant open config file in /etc/splash/emergence or /gentoo depending o which splash i use. There is more stuff about /dev/fb0 or /dev/fd0 i cant seem to find these messages in any of my log files though. Does your kernel configuration include both RAM disk and Initial RAM disk support (under Device Drivers->Block Devices)? Both are required for loading the initramfs through the initrd memory protocol. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
