(resending without gipped attachment) Running Linux 2.6.28-rc9 as of ab65387243f47a7bc11725f733c86bf27248b326. e2fsprogs 1.41.3-1 from Debian. Yesterday I created a ~464GB ext4 volume and copied about 107GB of music files onto it. Then I decided that I wanted to use half of the disk for something else, so last night I resized the ext4 filesystem to ~232GB and recreated the partitions to suit. This morning I wrote some new files to the ext4 filesystem, which went fine. Then I installed a new music player, which wanted to scan all of the files on the disk. It reported being unable to read some files, and there's rather a lot of this sort of thing in dmesg (see also http://ondioline.org/~paul/e4dmesg.gz): EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_find_extent: bad header in inode #39565: invalid magic - magic 24e, entries 28338, max 21313(0), depth 28712(0) EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_find_extent: bad header in inode #39555: invalid magic - magic cd8c, entries 59560, max 57082(0), depth 5425(0) EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_find_extent: bad header in inode #39563: invalid magic - magic 976d, entries 52325, max 49256(0), depth 50316(0) EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_find_extent: bad header in inode #39556: invalid magic - magic 61c6, entries 47990, max 4668(0), depth 32768(0) EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_find_extent: bad header in inode #44888: invalid magic - magic 42a, entries 5388, max 32960(0), depth 1872(0) EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_find_extent: bad header in inode #39844: invalid magic - magic 6ae8, entries 44073, max 20807(0), depth 10869(0) EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_ext_find_extent: bad header in inode #39843: invalid magic - magic 2200, entries 38282, max 17931(0), depth 0(0) There are no "access beyond end of partition" messages, so I don't think I screwed up the resize procedure. The argument I gave resizefs was "244192000K"; here's the partition table: Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 1 30401 244196001 83 Linux /dev/sdb2 30402 60801 244188000 83 Linux e2fsck aborts when I try to use it fix the filesystem: /dev/sdb1 contains a file system with errors, check forced.
