If we have to read the backup group descriptor checksums, the UNINIT flags are cleared to ensure that all of the inodes in the filesystem are scanned. However, the code that reset the UNINIT flags did not reset the group checksum, and this produced many spurious error messages in e2fsck. Group descriptor 0 checksum is invalid. FIXED. Group descriptor 1 checksum is invalid. FIXED. : : Recompute checksums after modifying group descriptors to avoid these error messages. Remove expected error messages in f_illitable_flexbg.
