Subject: [PATCH 3/3][e2fsprogs] tune2fs: Don't allow tune2fs -I if flex_bg on
Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2008 16:05:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <493F7852.2040201@gmail.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1148 bytes --]
add force flag to tune2fs -I, because it may cause data corruption
when the
last inode table block is followed by a in-use data block. If user
really want to
tune the inode size, they should be warned about this.
