Subject: Bugs with .99pl12 From: levinson@vax.sonoma.edu Date: 6 Sep 1993 20:09:21 -0800
I have just compiled and put on my system .99pl12 and noticed several problems
that you may want to know about.
1) Sometimes when I boot, I cannot use my keyboard. None of the keys do
anything including the numlock keys. I have to reboot and hope the filesystem
is not corrupted.
2)
I downloaded ext2fsprogs 0.3. When I run e2fsck on my hard disk, it checks,
then it marks it clean. If I try to run e2fsck again, it says that the
filesystem is clean and exits. I know this is normal conduct for e2fsck. The
problem is that when I reboot (using shutdown -r now) the first mount says it
is mounting an unchecked file system, which leads me to believe that shutdown
marked it dirty??? then when my e2fsck runs (which I placed in /etc/rc) it
goes thru the whole kit and kaboodle and checks the filesystem. Anyone know
why this is and how to correct it? It should only actually check the system if
it is not marked clean.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please respond via private mail if you
can.
