http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14354 --- Comment #70 from Holger Freyther <zecke@xxxxxxxxxxx> 2009-10-17 02:27:10 --- I have no idea if that is useful for anyone. I have done the following. 0.) use dd to create a big file 1.) install a OpenSuSE 11.1 in it using kvm 2.) change the /etc/fstab and /sbin/init 2.1) /sbin/init is doing mount /proc fsck -f /dev/hda2 echo "press any key to continue" mount -oremount,rw / cd /source/linux-2.6 rm -rf * rm -f .git/index.lock git checkout . make -j 6 make -j 6 modules_install 3.) Use kvm to start with the disk and an external kernel '-kernel ./bzImage -append root=/dev/hda2" 4.) During the "make -j 6" I interrupt the kernel compile. Result every ~10th time the filesystem is left with some errors (where you have to Y/N for fsck) after the journal recovery. The errors are lost inodes (to be attached to lost+found), zero length inodes and such. The benefit of using the above setup: - non karmic userspace (kvm still running on karmic though) - no dm (disk image still hosted on a dm device) - can copy/clone the disk image for each kernel run and use debugfs to look at it. I will post the next fsck log with errors and then I can upload it somewhere if it is of any interest. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
