Title: mkfs ext3 and fsck.ext3
Post by: Isterklister on August 23, 2007, 10:34:03 PM

Hello,
I have installed SME 7.2 (I have used 5.x earlier).
I am using the server as Samba server. Therefore I have installed 6 extra disks and have made partition on them and formated them with
mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdx1.

It works but it is very slow to write and read from disks. When I run
fsck.ext3 /dev/hdx
I get the following message (on all disks)
Block bitmap for group 880 is not in group. block (...
and fsck are trying to repair something and are deleting the journal system and so on.

What is wrong with this  :?: ?

What are you trying to do here ? Make one big storage space ? Have a look here...

Sorry, my mistake.

I used the comand
fsck.ext3 /dev/hdx
but should use
fsck.ext3 /dev/hdx1

Now there are now problems.
