Is there a lightweight command to recreate an ext2/ext3/ext4 FS with original options, e.g. based on tune2fs -l output? That is, for backup/restore purposes, it would be nice to run a command that saves the options to recreate each FS. Then, when restoring, the FSs would be recreated exactly -- original label, UUID, reserved block count, check interval, block size, etc. e2image can recreate an FS, but it takes a while to run, and the output file is large, even taking into account that the output file is sparse. It would be nice if e2image had an option to save just the bare minimum metadata required to recreate the FS -- that would run faster and take up less space. If nothing like this already exists, I'll whip up something in Perl. Just hoping not to reinvent the wheel. :) - Morty _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
