Hi all,
This version fixes a very nasty "how-the-hell-did-that-get-through"
bug. Fortunately, the bug is likely to cause a seg fault, before
too much damage is done.
Affected: 1.[34].x, when growing ext2 file systems, AND more blocks
are required for the group descriptors (i.e. for "large" growth)
The bug was introduced when big-endian support for ext2 was added.
Changes:
* fixed a brain-dead bug in ext2_meta.c:109. This bug causes growth of ext2
all file systems, that require more GDT blocks to get corrupted!!! OUCH!!!
* fixed regression tests, to test GDT growth
* ped_device_add() adds to the end now
* added a check in /proc/partitions for devices
