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"
Did you create the journal device first, as the man page says? If you want to have the file system on /dev/sda7 and the journal on /dev/sda5, you would do mkfs.ext3 -O journal_dev /dev/sda5 Then you can do mkfs.ext3 -j -J device=/dev/sda5 /dev/sda7 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
