Did you try running a read-only e2fsck before you tried using the tune2fs command? Merely turning on the extents feature doesn't actually convert any files to use extents. So if e2fsck is showing errors like this: > e2fsck shows a variety of errors: > Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes > Inode 118843400, end of extent exceeds allowed value > (logical block 1409, physical block 3803034390, len 976) > Inode 118843400, end of extent exceeds allowed value > (logical block 2385, physical block 3803056554, len 4294966945) This suggests that the file system was likely corrupted before you tried converting the file system, since there should not have been any extent-mapped files in an ext3 file system.
