Anybody an idea why (unlike with xfs or reiserfs) I could not manage to make an ext3 filesystem with external journal. After "mkfs.ext3 -b 4096 -O /dev/sda5 /dev/hda7" I get: "Unvollständige Dateisystem-Option gesetzt: /dev/sda5" And after "mke2fs -b 4096 -n -j -J device=/dev/hda7 /dev/sda5" I end up with "Filesystem has unexpected block size beim Versuch, das Journal-Device /dev/hda7 zu öffnen" at the very end of the process. Also using tune2fs to convert: little:/home/fmf # tune2fs -j /dev/sda5 -J device=/dev/hda7 tune2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006) tune2fs: Filesystem has unexpected block size beim Öffnen des Journals auf /dev/hda7 after making an ext2 filesystem fails. What did I overlook here?
