It is no wonder then that the tools can't recognize the file system on the device or a file because the super block is not where it should be - it is offset by 10 bytes. If you want to use such a file system you have to present it to the other tools, or even kernel, with the correct offset. It is not going to be automatic. So for example this works: mke2fs -q -t ext4 -E offset=10 image 500M sudo losetup -o 10 --show -f image /dev/loop0 sudo e2fsck -f /dev/loop0 e2fsck 1.46.6-rc1 (12-Sep-2022) Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Pass 2: Checking directory structure Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity Pass 4: Checking reference counts Pass 5: Checking group summary information /dev/loop0: 11/128016 files (0.0% non-contiguous), 26684/512000 blocks I hope it helps. -- You may reply to this email to add a comment.
