labelling partitions with reiserfstune

labelling partitions with reiserfstune

[Nick Burrett]

Hi,

It would be useful if the disk label of a mounted partition could be 
changed by reiserfstune.  Since I'm only after changing the label and 
not the journal, the following assertion seems unreasonable.

bash-2.05# reiserfstune -l / /dev/rd/c0d0p1

<-------------reiserfstune, 2002------------->
reiserfsprogs 3.6.4

reiserfstune: can not rebuild journal of mounted filesystem
bash-2.05#


Regards,


Nick.

will be done someday. probably in reiser4 already.

reiserfs and TUX2 - 2.4.18 or 2.4.19?

[darren]

Hi all,

I want to run TUX2 to serve files off my ReiserFS partition.

But I cannot seem to get TUX2 on kernel 2.4.19, which I would like to
run my reiserfs partition on.

Should I just stick to 2.4.18 and somehow patch the reiserfs there??

We cannot tell you anything about Tux2 because we do not know anything
about it ;)

If you plan to run not current 2.4 kernels, you might want to
get patches from ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiserfs-for-2.4/<version>.pending

Where <version> next kernel version. (repeat that until you reach latest
kernel). 

But actually 2.4.18 is pretty stable and you may not want to patch it if you
want.

Bye,
    Oleg

I think Darren should try 2.4.20aa1, Andrea Arcangeli's (SuSE) -AA VM kernel.
It has TUX (the web server; TUX2 is a new file system with phase tree under 
construction) on board.

cat /usr/src/linux/net/tux/Config.in
tristate '  Threaded linUX application protocol accelerator layer (TUX)' 
CONFIG_TUX
if [ "$CONFIG_TUX" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_TUX" = "m" ]; then
  bool     '    External CGI module' CONFIG_TUX_EXTCGI
  bool     '    extended TUX logging format' CONFIG_TUX_EXTENDED_LOG
  bool     '    debug TUX' CONFIG_TUX_DEBUG
fi
