On Thursday 22 November 2001 03:58, Douglas J Hunley enunciated: I am in the same boat with trying to reformat 4 partitions to ext3 when I use tune2fs i get this back now this morning:
linux:/ # tune2fs -j /dev/hdb5 tune2fs 1.25 (20-Sep-2001) Creating journal inode: tune2fs: Permission denied while trying to create journal file The partition is: drwxr-xr-x 11 kantoine users 4096 Nov 21 14:07 backup Do the permissions need to be 777, I did not think so, do I need to be in root and not su. Sure I was root last night when trying to ude tune2fs. -- Keith Antoine aka 'skippy' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061 Australia PH:61733002161 Retired Geriatric, Sometime Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
