Subject: [PATCH v6 3/3] tests: Support Changed mkfs.ext2 Behavior for -r Flag
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2025 19:08:06 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114010808.105002-4-adhamilt@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251114010808.105002-1-adhamilt@gmail.com>
Correct nuisance ext234_test failure on newer Linux
distros.
Recently, the mkfs.ext2 utility removed support for the
-r flag to specify old (version 0) formats of ext2. A
new flag was added to allow the same behavior. Support
both ways of specifying version 0 ext2 file systems
when testing ext2 in GRUB.
