i get this when trying to run e2fsck on my ext4dev filesystem (kernel

e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck!
just updated to the git-version of e2fsprogs, same error. i know e2fsck
worked once with the drive (~2 months ago).
what can i do?
Do you in fact have any very large files on the disk?
yeah, i have (> 5.5gb).
i know it worked a few months (1-2) ago, even with extents enabled. at this
time there where those large files too.
The old 1.39-interim-tyt3 e2fsprogs patch claimed it supported huge
files, but it didn't, actually. It lied. :-(
(So if you needed to repair a filesystem, e2fsck would screw up the
i_blocks field.)
I'm working on fixing that.
ah ok, so i know what's up - seems i've to wait until fixing it. just
wanted to do it, because syslog said "maximum mount time reached,
running is recommended". so no need to hurry ;)
