Alright alright.... Now I compiled 2.4.19-ac4, with ext3 and quota support.. now I need a little help with quota support :-/ When I booted with ext3, quota support went away. I was using vfsold (quota.user) format. Now I can't get quota working. Here's what I do. on /etc/fstab i have /dev/hdc1 /var ext3 exec,dev,suid,rw,usrquota 1 2 First approach: [root@jaram var]# touch quota.user [root@jaram var]# chmod 600 quota.user [root@jaram var]# ls -la quota.user -rw------- 1 root root 0 Aug 13 17:04 quota.user [root@jaram var]# quotacheck -augvm -F vfsold quotacheck: WARNING - Quotafile /var/quota.user was probably truncated. Can't save quota settings... quotacheck: Scanning /dev/hdc1 [/var] | quotacheck: Scanning /dev/hdc1 [/var] done quotacheck: Checked 11847 directories and 61341 files [root@jaram var]# quotaon -a quotaon: using /var/quota.user on /dev/hdc1 [/var]: No such process quotaon: Quota format not supported in kernel. [root@jaram var]# Second try: [root@jaram var]# touch aquota.user [root@jaram var]# chmod 600 aquota.user [root@jaram var]# ls -la aquota.user -rw------- 1 root root 0 Aug 13 17:10 aquota.user [root@jaram var]# quotacheck -augvm -F vfsv0 quotacheck: WARNING - Quotafile /var/aquota.user was probably truncated.
