Hi all
I've got a problem with quota on a debian sarge uml client with kernel 2.4.27-1um, host is 2.6.8, skas3. I'm trying to use it on the root partition /dev/ubd/0 which is mounted with options usrquota,grpquota. The next step would be to initialize /quota.user and /quota.group. I've tried to call quotacheck -avu, quotacheck -avug, quotacheck -vu /, quotacheck -vum / etc. even started up the uml client in single user mode. It fails with one of the following error messages:
quotacheck: Can't find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.
Does the filesystem you use supports quota? Have you checked the procedure? I think things should work, at least with ext2 (I don't have tested this, however). Have you compiled in quota support.
With hostfs there would be a big problem (I think someone explained it couldn't work), but not in this case.
Solved. The ext3 filesystem was mounted as "auto". Had to mount it explicitly as "ext3". Tricky.
