Hello,
I have some more information about ext2fs-problems to add.
I use a 76MB-ext2fs-Partition, which I made with
mke2fs /dev/hda3
I have mounted it to /usr/spool/news.
Everytime space gets narrow (it still says about 15MB, but this is
small enough to trigger trouble), the uuxqt fails with
"Kernel panic: ext2: get_group_desc: invalid group"
After this message, the ext-2fs stood still, anything else not accessing it
worked flawless, but a df or sync simply hang and could not got
rid off by a "kill -9"...
Are there any fixes available?
Linux 0.99p8-8 with ext2fs-2d (30/03/93) - my tools are still 2c...
Now after deleting only 5MB of articles I gained more than 10MB additional
space - can I trust my eyes ?!
And after having about 30MB-diskspace (as far as df tells me), uuxqt simply
workes fine.
Cheers, Michael Will
