Hi Ted, The "mke2fs -d" doesn't copy the file's extended attributes into the device currently, I'd like to make it work and submit a patch for it if it is acceptable by e2fsprogs. Maybe we can add a "[-x xattr]" option for "mke2fs -d" to make it copy the extended attributes. What's your opinion, please ? -- Thanks Robert -- 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
