[LTP] How to run only a specific test series like for example IPC?

Hi,

I wanted to only run the IPC tests as I have troubles with IPC(-MSG)
in Linux-Next.

This is what I did...

root# cd /opt/ltp/

root# ./runltp ./runtest/ipc

...is that the correct way? Wrong?

Unfortunately, this fails due to EXT4-fs troubles...
...
mke2fs 1.42 (29-Nov-2011)
Filesystem label=
OS type: Linux
Block size=1024 (log=0)
Fragment size=1024 (log=0)
Stride=0 blocks, Stripe width=0 blocks
32 inodes, 236 blocks
11 blocks (4.66%) reserved for the super user
First data block=1
1 block group
8192 blocks per group, 8192 fragments per group
32 inodes per group

Allocating group tables: done
Writing inode tables: done

Filesystem too small for a journal <--- ???
Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: mount:
/dev/loop1 already mounted or /tmp/ltp-p5uaFntNJE/mnt_pnt.u44xDV busy
FATAL: can't mount block device /dev/loop1.
root@fambox:/opt/ltp# done

10240+0 records in
10240+0 records out
10240000 bytes (10 MB) copied, 0.260004 s, 39.4 MB/s
^C

root# dmesg | tail

[ 78.095907] EXT4-fs (loop1): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem <--- ???

root# grep -i ext4 /boot/config-$(uname -r)
CONFIG_EXT4_FS=y
CONFIG_EXT4_FS_POSIX_ACL=y
CONFIG_EXT4_FS_SECURITY=y
# CONFIG_EXT4_DEBUG is not set

IMPORTANT NOTE: Here, I am running Ubuntu/precise as a WUBI installation.
