New in this release is a way for distributions and system administrators to control the default filesystem features via the /etc/mke2fs.conf file. In the pre-release version, mke2fs is still using the same behaviour as before, but my plan is to change mke2fs to create filesystems with the dir_index and resize_inode features by default. People who don't like this default can always edit mke2fs.conf and change things back. - Ted _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
