Message-Id: <20030702225425.220d046a.billfink@mindspring.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org List-Id: Has anyone been able to get Apple's fsck_hfs with Roman Zippel's Linux patch to a usable state on PPC? I was able to build it with the following additional patch: --- dfalib/.orig/hfs_endian.h 2003-06-07 21:36:40.000000000 -0400 +++ dfalib/.mod/hfs_endian.h 2003-06-07 22:12:27.000000000 -0400 @@ -35,11 +35,17 @@ /* BIG ENDIAN Macros */ /*********************/ #if BYTE_ORDER == BIG_ENDIAN +typedef u_int16_t u_big_int16_t; +typedef u_int32_t u_big_int32_t; +typedef u_int64_t u_big_int64_t; /* HFS is always big endian, make swaps into no-ops */ #define SWAP_BE16(__a) (__a) #define SWAP_BE32(__a) (__a) #define SWAP_BE64(__a) (__a) + #define SET_SWAP_BE16(__d, __a) (__d) = (__a) + #define SET_SWAP_BE32(__d, __a) (__d) = (__a) + #define SET_SWAP_BE64(__d, __a) (__d) = (__a) /************************/ /* LITTLE ENDIAN Macros */ But when I try and run it on an HFS+ partition: gwiz# fsck_hfs /dev/hda9 /dev/rhda9: No such file or directory Can't stat /dev/rhda9 /dev/hda9 is not a character device CONTINUE? [yn] n So I create a raw device with: raw /dev/raw/raw3 /dev/hda9 And then create a symbolic link: ln -s /dev/raw/raw3 rhda9 But: gwiz# fsck_hfs /dev/rhda9 ** /dev/rhda9 does not appear to do anything. Using the "-f" force option doesn't appear to have any effect either. gwiz# fsck_hfs -f /dev/rhda9 ** /dev/rhda9 It just immediately returns. I'm guessing fsck_hfs has only been tested on PC Linux. Has anyone gotten it to work on PPC or have any ideas about further things to try or investigate. -Thanks -Bill ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
