a quote from what ive read. (not word for word) All filesystems get fragmented.. Linux ext2/3 use advanced algorithums to preallocate space when writing files to the disk. to keep this to a min you can try fsck.ext3 -D it sounds like what your wanting to do man fsck.ext3 you can migrate from ext3 to ext2 and run the older programs to defrag.. but again.. would just recomend to do the backup data / format / restore.. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
