Done. Set up. And run as loop.

Keep in mind that this is a pre-release version.
Some things may not work. Please tell me if you
find any problems and I will fix them before the
proper release of version 3.50.


On a 1.2GHz machine where loop BL3.4 worked, with a rivafb card that works with Xvesa.

The X setup routine worked perfectly. X started.
Ctrl-Esc did not produce a menu but the screen looks more like icewm or Windows 98 than swm did.

I tested e2fsck on a partition made with PQMagic that the old e2fsck from BL3 works with.

e2fsck /dev/hdb2 - 1 sec later it said it was clena.

e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/hdb2

A long time later
Error reading block 1097696 (Invalid arg) while reading indirecto blocks of inode 576125
Ignore error <y> ?

If I type n - segfaults out of the program.

if I type y -
Error while iterating over blocks in node 516124: Invalid argument.

And much more of the same. After a while I tired of typing y and exited.

Then switched to the old BL3 and ran e2fsck and it corrected a lot of errors.

Ran this one e2fsck again and it did the same as before.

Ran BL3.40 standalone e2fsck again and it corrected one inode.

I don't think this e2fsck is usable.

Someone else please test it on an unimportant ext2 partition.


I don't have any free space to try mke2fs in right now.

Will try dialing and using links in X next.
