Folks, I doing the following sequence of events: 1. Tarred the directories of an existing system. 2. Booted my development system from a ramdisk using a rescue image. 3. fdisk /dev/hda and created a partition accepting the defaults. 4. cd /; mkdir j; mke2fs -cv /dev/hda1; mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /j; 5. Downloaded the tar, my compiled image and whole bunch of RPMs I need to install on the system. 6. Reboot and I made the system boot from hard drive. I get this error when I am installing the RPMs: "EXT2-fs error (device ide0(3,1)); ext2_check_page: bad entry in directory #30979: unaligned directory entry - offset=920, inode=1388815025, rec_len=53409, name_len=47" I ran memtest and my memory seems to be working fine. I am using kernel 2.4.19. Is this a bug in the kernel or am I doing anything wrong? Can someone explain? Regards, Syam -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
