Hi, List!

In my journey to discover kernel 2.6 I get this error trying to reiserfsck
/dev/sda1 (usb flash disk, 128 MB)

bash-2.05b# reiserfsck --check /dev/sda1
reiserfsck 3.6.11 (2003 www.namesys.com)

I expect reiserfsck to treat this device as any other device.

Any advice, please?
Thank you!

debugreiserfs -d /dev/sda1
debugreiserfs 3.6.11 (2003 www.namesys.com)


debugreiserfs: Failed to open the fs journal.
bash-2.05b# debugreiserfs /dev/sda1
debugreiserfs 3.6.11 (2003 www.namesys.com)


debugreiserfs: Failed to open the fs journal.

I created the fs with command: mkreiserfs -s 513 /dev/sda1

Thanks!

I see. Looks like there is a bug in reiserfsprogs.
We will work on a fix and will let you know after we are done.
2.6.4 appears to work, though, so you might downgrade to this version for now.

Thank you.

Bye,
