The test file system was created like this: mke2fs -t ext2 -O ^resize_inode -b 1024 -g 1024 -qF /tmp/foo.img 64M The file system hence should have 64 block groups, and dumpe2fs before the resize looks like this on an x86 system: Group 1: (Blocks 1025-2048) Backup superblock at 1025, Group descriptors at 1026-1027 Block bitmap at 1028 (+3), Inode bitmap at 1029 (+4) Inode table at 1030-1061 (+5) ... and after: Group 1: (Blocks 1025-2048) Backup superblock at 1025, Group descriptors at 1026-1089 Block bitmap at 1090 (+65), Inode bitmap at 1091 (+66) Inode table at 1092-1123 (+67) Note the range of block group #1: 1025-2048, whereas on the PPC, apparently the range is quite different: Group 1: (Blocks 1025-1110) So there's something else going really wrong here.... - Ted -- 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
