Mount Logical (ext2fs) Partitions?
9.1 on x86_64. No doubt this question has been asked before, but how do I mount logical partitions (e2fs) under FreeBSD? I have checked the handbook, and DuckDuckGo'ed, but without finding anything useful. The third slice on my first disk is a physical one, and will mount happily under FreeBSD. From /etc/fstab: /dev/ada0s3 /Mail ext2fs rw00 But I have a couple of logical partitions (also ext2fs) in the fourth slice, which I have been trying, unsuccessfully, to mount.

AFAIK the default is off. Alternatively you can use tunefs to do this after you run newfs, but before you mount it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

However if you have the STABLE source and the RELEASE userland there could be incompatible behaviour. Upgrading your kernel to the STABLE release is generally a good idea.

Re: Problem mounting EXT2FS
Judging by your uname output, the #0 should be #1 if it's reading a re- compiled kernel. I would double check that you used the proper KERNCONF for make buildkernel and make installkernel. For example, I recompiled my kernel and note the output: [r...@arthur /var/account]# uname -a FreeBSD arthur.silvertree.org 7.2-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p3 #1: Fri Aug 14 13:27:47 PDT 2009 r...@arthur.silvertree.org:/usr/ obj/usr/src/sys/ARTHUR i386 See the #1? That shows me that the kernel has been recompiled once. The fact it says MYKERNEL for the kernel config, make sure that you copied GENERIC to MYKERNEL in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/ I used the handbook and actually put ARTHUR in /root/kernels and in / usr/src/sys/i386/conf: [r...@arthur ~/kernels]# ls -la /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/ARTHUR lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 20 Jul 29 07:57 /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/ ARTHUR - /root/kernels/ARTHUR I'd suggest that you didn't compile the right kernel config file. Another suggestion I used was to add in /etc/make.conf: KERNCONF=ARTHUR So add KERNCONF=MYKERNEL then copy /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MYKERNEL then edit MYKERNEL as needed and with that line in /etc/make.conf: cd /usr/src make buildkernel make installkernel shutdown -r now I may be off base, but I'd start with double checking the kernel config file used for buildkernel and installkernel.

Re: mounting ext2fs partitions on FBSD7 ( third time a charm?)
# mount -t ext2fs /dev/ad0s8 /mnt/ # ls /mnt ls: /mnt: Bad file descriptor Weird. I can mount ext2fs on 7.0 (and previously on 6.0 and 6.2) and things mostly work. In the past I had ext2fs on both primary and extended slices (or whatever the preferred terminology is). This is on AMD64 with SATA drives. My ext2fs filesystems were created by Linux (32 bit Linux, since penguins can't count to 64). Are you sure that ad0s8 contains a valid ext2fs filesystem? Can Linux mount it and access it? Maybe try running fsck? What OS created (newfs/mkfs) the filesystem? Problems I have seen with ext2fs: There was some case where accessing a large ( 1 GB) file (rm-ing it I think?) hung or paniced FreeBSD. Small files are fine. Sometimes on boot FreeBSD would get confused and think the fext2fs needed to be fscked dispite a clean shutdown, but wasn't able to do so automagically, so it dropped into single user mode and sat there waiting for manual intervention. I no longer have ext2fs automatically mounted. There is probably some configuration fix for this. ext2fs is unreliable and LOSES DATA under it's native Linux. --- Linus Is Not a Unix eXpert ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: mounting ext2fs partitions on FBSD7 ( third time a charm?)
Hey, Have you, by any chance, tried and suceded at mounting ext2fs on FBSD7? If you did, at least I'd know that it _is_ possible :s It is possible, although I haven't used this on FreeBSD 7.0 yet (only on 5.x and 6.x releases). I'd also try this: mkdir /mnttest mount -t ext2fs /dev/ad0s8 /mnttest ls /mnttest file /mnttest ls -la / | grep mnttest and maybe also: fdisk /dev/ad0 Bye, Nejc ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

bad file descriptor when mounting an ext2fs.
Hi, list, Recently, I encounter a very annoying issue, when I try to mount an ext2fs filesystem in laptop disk, after mounted it without any errors, I can't access it, ls /mnt/da0s3 says bad file descriptor. In that disk, also has msdos and ufs fs, but they work well. I tried reformat whole disk, and fsck.ext2 -f that ext2fs slice, nothing works at all. But my a local disk has ext2fs too, it can be mounted and used well, don't know why? -- Reguards, anhnmncb.

You might be running into a filename mangling limitation in Samba. That was my first interpretation after the test case with the filenames. However, everything works well when I put the same set of files on a UFS volume shared by samba. When copying the same set of files to another directory on ext2fs the directory listings are still incomplete. It happens with the test data as well as with real life file sets. When I create the files starting at I can see the files with the number to 0128, when I create them starting at 0999 down to , I can see 0999 to 0871. So I think it doesn't look like filename mangling problems. To me it looks like smbd retrieves the first subset of files which fit into an internal memory block, returns that and does not get the next subset of files from the directory. I read a problem like that for another scenario but unfortunately can't locate it any more.

Incomplete file listing with Samba on ext2fs
Hi, I've set up a FreeBSD6.2 machine and moved my file server disk from a Linux system where it was used before. The disk uses ext2fs. In FreeBSD I can see all files, when looking at the samba shares from a Windows 2000 system, I do not see all files. I also do not see all files when using smbclient on FreeBSD. A test case went like that: I created 1000 files named file000 ... file0999 in a directory. I could see all of them via Windows. I created 1000 files named file-.file ... file-0999.file in a directory. I could see the first 130 files of them. I added this to my smb.conf, because I found related information on the web and this fixed some problems with incomplete directory listing which I encountered a few days ago: dos charset = CP850 unix charset = UTF-8 display charset = LOCALE When I copy my large list of files to a UFS volume, I can see the full listing via Windows. Apart from switching the ext2s to ufs, does someone has other suggestions for solving the problem? Do you suggest another group for this question?

Hi, The mountd program in FreeBSD previously had some hard-coded restrictions on which filesystems it could export (ufs, msdosfs, cd9660, and ntfs). I converted the mountd program to use the nmount() syscall, and removed the hardcoded restrictions on what filesystems can be NFS exported. As long as the underlying filesystem supports NFS exporting, it should work. It should now work for ext2fs. If you cvsup to RELENG_6 or HEAD, you can get my changes, and if you can try them out and let me know if you have any problems, I would appreciate it. -- Craig Rodrigues [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: mount ext2fs
If you need fsck for ext2, you could just book a Knoppix (or maybe Slackware) live CD. No need to install Linux, you should be able to run fsck from the CD, and that will clear the ext2 partition. I will also confirm what the other poster said, the correct syntax for mounting the partition should be: mount_ext2fs /dev/as2s2 /data2 Assuming of course that /dev/ad2s2 is the correct partition, and that /data2 actually exists. Using mount -t ext2fs has never worked for me under FreeBSD, though it is the correct syntax under Linux. regards, Robert other deep routed issues. i had read on the mailing list about marking the CLEAR flag for the partition, and that fsck for ext2fs would be required for that. it would seem if i could get that installed it'd be one step closer to being able to mount these partitions. thnx again. _ Johnny ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Large file support is a read-only compatibility feature (it is indicated by the EXT2_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_LARGE_FILE flag in the s_feature_ro_compat field in the superblock), but we didn't support it without the first hunk in the above patch so we should have rejected even r/o mounts of file systems that have this flag set. We only reject r/w mounts of such file systems. I suppose this isn't a problem in Linux implementations of ext2fs because implementations that don't support large files in ext2fs don't support large files anywhere, so files larger than the old limit of 4GB are handled as correctly as possible at read time so their presence need not prevent mounting.

compiling ext2fs into a kernel
Greetings, I compiled a kernel from a standard 5.1-RELEASE installation yestreen to include support for ext2fs, but couldn't find any documentation about what option to set to include support for ext2fs. Grepping the handbook and all files in the .../i386/conf directory did not reveal any references to ext2fs at all. I eventually got around it by modifying the Makefile in the modules directory and successfully compiled a kernel with ext2fs support. As the kernel is for my gateway machine at home I temporarily don't have Internet access there, so I did a quick search at work this morning and found a reference to adding options EXT2FS to the config file - probably the more canonical way of setting options.

Re: Migrating from Linux: mounting ext2fs
Hi Miguel! Miguel_Gonçalves écrit: Dear BSDers, I am about to move a workgroup server from Linux to FreeBSD. How stable is the FreeBSD support for ext2fs? I am currently using it happily (for the same purpose as yours). Beware that the fsck_ext2fs needs to be re-linked if you want to automount your partition (I still have the issue - I did not figure out how to statically link it so that it does not require libc.so before mounting /usr). Any help on this one, anyone?

On Wed, 2003-10-22 at 07:03, Miguel Gonalves wrote: How stable is the FreeBSD support for ext2fs? First, if you're planning to migrate your server permanently, you're probably better off reformatting in UFS: it's faster, and better for error recovery. And computers that mount nfs/Samba/whatever shares won't know the difference. If you insist on keeping your partitions in ext2fs: I've seen a couple of problems related to fsck. In particular, when a filesystem is dirty, fsck.ext2 sometimes finds and fixes the problems but then fails to mark the disk as clean (meaning that FreeBSD will refuse to mount it, if you've specified read/write, and it'll be checked again next time you reboot, and so forth). Personally, I've only seen this with ext3 (journaled) filesystems, but I don't know if that's universal. So, to be safe, you'll probably want an rc script that mounts -r any of your ext2 systems that were skipped. (Note that if /mnt/linux fails to mount because it was dirty, /mnt/linux/usr, etc. will also fail to mount.) This way, if the server gets hard-reset somehow, your users will still be able to access their files, even if they aren't able to update them, until you fix things. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

After reading more man pages and the chapter Adding a Disk from UNIX System Administration Handbook, 3rd ed. by Nemieth, Snyder, Seebass and Hein, I realize that this ext2fs harddrive will best be fixed by putting back into a linux environment and proceeding with fdisk + fsck etc. cheers Torben Brosten wrote: I'm trying to decipher the error message: ext2fs: #ad/0x000a: wrong magic number 0x8b6 (expected 0xef53) I've been reading man magic man file but I have limited C experience.
