firstly, why are you using unpartitioned disk, creating fs on a disk, not partition? if there is r4, and drive is 2 TB, i think, it's not camera memory or smth like that)) just create mbr/gpt partition table to avoid some potential problems. secondly, check that reiser4 module is loaded, if occasionly not - try insmod. also, you can check if r4 is listed in /proc/filesystems 2013-326 00:01 doiggl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <doiggl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello, > I get this message when trying to use a reiser4 partition. > > # mount /dev/sdb /media/disk > mount: unknown filesystem type 'reiser4' > > What an I missing [in the kernel build] so I can use this partition ? > -Thanks Glenn > > Steps I have done: > These paramerers are set for the kernel and it built ok, and I booted from > it. > > CONFIG_REISER4_DEBUG=n > CONFIG_REISER4_FS=m > > I booted the new kernel > # uname -a > Linux test.site 3.11.9-2.ga012288-vanilla #1 SMP Thu Nov 21 10:36:29 UTC > 2013 (1602f81) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux > > - Full kernel build log see [1] > - Built rpm are at [2] > - dmesg when powering up disk with reiser4 partition. > > [1] reiser4/kernel build log [its a long log...] > https://build.opensuse.org/build/home:doiggl/openSUSE_Factory/x86_64/kernel-reiser4/_log > > reiser4 build parameters set: > https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:doiggl/kernel-reiser4/zreiser4parameters.txt?expand=1 > > [2] Built reiser4/kernels > https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/home:doiggl/kernel-reiser4?repository=openSUSE_Factory > > [3]dmesg when powering up disk > [ 9401.263823] usb 1-2: new high-speed USB device number 3 using ehci-pci > [ 9401.400157] usb 1-2: New USB device found, idVendor=04fc, > idProduct=0c25 > [ 9401.400170] usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, > SerialNumber=1 > [ 9401.400177] usb 1-2: Product: USB to Serial-ATA bridge > [ 9401.400183] usb 1-2: Manufacturer: Sunplus Technology Inc. > [ 9401.400188] usb 1-2: SerialNumber: ST32000542 5XW1ZMG4 > [ 9401.424287] usb-storage 1-2:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected > [ 9401.424697] scsi4 : usb-storage 1-2:1.0 > [ 9401.424905] usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage > [ 9402.429827] scsi 4:0:0:0: Direct-Access ST320005 42AS > PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 > [ 9402.430333] sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 > [ 9402.431961] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] 3907029168 512-byte logical blocks: (2.00 > TB/1.81 TiB) > [ 9402.434681] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off > [ 9402.434695] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 38 00 00 00 > [ 9402.437448] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page found > [ 9402.437461] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through > [ 9402.444950] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page found > [ 9402.444962] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through > [ 9402.464733] sdb: unknown partition table > [ 9402.476864] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page found > [ 9402.476876] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through > [ 9402.476885] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk > > #fdisk -l > Disk /dev/sdb: 2000.4 GB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors > Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes > Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes > I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes > > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
