Try hijack299-jh1-mount fix

Does this have Jaharke's changes too?

Take a guess: hijack299-jh1-mountfix

You don't really think I'd tag one of my changes with jh1 do you????? the -mountfix is mine.

Thanks. You guys are great.

Any chance of talking Mark into including both in the standard release?

I already sent my change to mlord

Now that the problem in the kernel is fixed, I've already managed to crash the player a few times because of the bug, and on one of my FSCK repairs I got the following error text indicated. Do you think this indicates a serious problem or not?

No that shouldn't be serious. Some large file was removed, but was still in use when the drive was remounted readonly. So it was only 'marked' for deletion (deleted inode has 0 dtime), but never really reclaimed. When that is 'fixed' the blocks that were part of this file are no longer referenced, but the allocation bitmap still shows them as used. those are the block bitmap differences. Finally the free blocks counts are corrected, as long as the number of free blocks increases it should be safe.

It actually looks like 2 files were deleted, as the inode count was off by 2. Both of them were about 228 blocks, so about 228KB or 872KB depending on the filesystem blocksize.

Some large file was removed, but was still in use when the drive was remounted readonly.

Cool, I think I know what file it was. All is well.

I'm trying to download preinit but it looks like the site is down Sat 12.7.02 @ 3:00pm PST.

Would someone be kind enough to either attach it to this thread or post it somewhere else?

TIA.

Hi.

You are probably able to get it from the quoted URL again, but I attach it to this post anyway.

Sorry. My computer was down for nearly four days due to a large ice storm combined with CP&L's general incompetence. Off to research hydrogen fuel cells.
