There _is_ HFS support in Linux (though limited). You have : 1) hfsutils and hfsplusutils for access in userspace 2) The kernel implementation (very buggy in 2.4 but quite good in 2.6) 3) A port of

Long story... basically, Parted's ext2 resizer can't deal with modern ext2 file systems :/ Solution A: fix libparted... probably 1-2 weekends worth of work. Solution B: make e2fsprogs more reusable,

Should it? I remember DOS/Windows having problems with 2Gig Fat16 partitions, but I could be wrong. (I really should have documented my experiments, sorry!) The problem is that FAT has strict require

Hey, After i did some playing with parted/libparted i have a few questions about the fat16 filesystem. - I can only create fat16 up to 1023 MB. Shouldn't that be 2048 MB ? - When i try to resize a fa

The story is: * way back when ext2resize was written by Lennert, e2fsprogs always made ext2 file systems in a particular way. * the ext2 code makes some assumptions about this (but verifies that thes

I don't pretend to be an ext2 guru, but I don't think it's a bug that you can't fix it with tune2fs. "Undoing" sparse superblocks is not really something that you can actually do without re-creating

Jon, Thanks for the quick response. I tested -O none and parted did resize the fylesystem thus created. However, using tune2fs -O on a file system created with the default option did not work after t

This is the same problem I sent mail about a while back. (sometime last month). It seems to be related to sparse superblock layout. I found that if you do mke2fs -O none, parted will work fine. It do

I am not able to resize partitions under RHEL 3.0. The error is :"No implementation. This ext2 filesystem has a rather strange layout. Parted cannot resize this (yet)." I am using a generic Adaptec A
