Hello.
I'm trying out R4, and I'm having no luck mounting the device with the
R4 filesystem.
I've managed to compile libaal from /FIXED/ (./configure;make;make install).
reiser4progs-0.4.20 is compiled with:
--disable-debug --disable-fnv1-hash --disable-rupasov-hash
--disable-tea-hash --disable-deg-hash --disable-short-keys
--disable-specia --with-libaal=/usr/local/lib
then: make;make install
My problem is, that after making a R4 filesystem on a partition, it
won't mount. I've tried various options, but still doesn't work.
I wonder if I am missing something?
I'm running debian testing on an athlon64
Can someone suggest some options or strategies?
Thank you,
Chris w.

Are to trying to mount and old partition or a new
partition ?
I've had problems mounting a Reiser4 partition
(created with last 2003 snapshot) with latest
snapshot.
I had to re-create it and now all is working well.
I'm testing R4 on a laptop (Pemtium 4) and a PC (AMD
Duron) with kernel 2.6.1 and latest Namesys snapshot,
using simple ./configure;make;make install for libaal
and reiser4progs (I mean without options).

Hi Paolo.
Thanks for your reply. I'm mounting a new reiser4 partition. I just
recreated another partition with cfdisk (not rewriting R4 over the
previous one) and still won't mount. I'm getting the usual error
report: "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on
/dev/hda7.....etc"
I also recompiled my 2.6.1 kernel & reiser4progs-0.4.20 as well.
I have noticed that the kernel compile is complaining though, now that I
think about it I remember the original patching coming up with "hunk
#1, etc, succeeding, etc and I had about 6 or 8 of those. I ignored
them as I assumed the word "succeeding" meant that things went ok.
So my next step will be to repatch a fresh kernel.

Let's get this straight:
1. partition (/dev/hda7) was created by cfdisk.
2. mkfs.reiser4 /dev/hda7 was executed
3. now mount fails
right?

What is in your kernel logs? (Use dmesg command or look into file like
/var/log/messages.)

That shouldn't matter.

Hi Paolo.
Ok, I re-compiled a fresh 2.6.1 kernel, ran the command:
wget http://www.namesys.com/snapshots/2004.01.19/all.diff.gz -q -O -
| zcat | patch -p1
The R4 partitions mount fine, so all is fine now.
What I had done before, I remembered, was patch a 2.6.0 kernel with
patch-2.6.1-bk4.bz2, which I suspect was the wrong patch.
Sorry for the unnecessary posts.
Ok, so now I can have some fun with R4!
