Re: [Cooker] (8.1) ext3 fsck problem with latest kernel
I know that this is not an answer to your problem, but I am running 8.1 (with 2.4.8-34.1) with all but my home partition formatted ext3. I am constantly crashing this system due to some usb problem jamming up the shutdown. Thus I am continually recovering those partitions from the journals and have never encountered the problem you are describing. I am just wondering if there is something unique about your system that is causing the problem. In any case, I have not seen it (yet). -George Mitchell SI Reasoning wrote: >I have 2 hard drives. hda2 is /boot and hdb2 is / >both of these run ext3 which were built from former >ext2 partitions.

[Cooker] cyrus-imapd,pam_mysql
A couple of sugestions: I'm using postfix with mysql suport an cyrus-imapd for my mail servers and I would like to see Mandrake packages of these programs. Is there any plan to include those in standard distribution.Maybe on conttrib disk? A lot of distributions (redhat, polished linux,suse) have cyrus packages so I think Mandrake would benefit from including those also. I have built postfix with mysql suport using src.rpm from mandrake 8.1 simply by adding a couple of lines in spec file but I'm interested why it wasn't done in the default package since it already includes ldap support? Also I would like to see pam_mysql for Mandrake since it is a wery useful thing. If these packages are included in the ProSuite version of 8.1 on those two server cds I'm sorry for asking a dumb question but I have been waiting for ProSuite to arrive for 2 monts now. Could someone send me a list of packages in ProSuite since this list (http://www.mandrakesoft.com/products/81/cd?m=9) is broken (it shows packages from the first or second cd).A simple ll /mnt/cdrom would be enough.

[Cooker] (8.1) ext3 fsck problem with latest kernel
I have 2 hard drives. hda2 is /boot and hdb2 is / both of these run ext3 which were built from former ext2 partitions. When I first did the conversion I had to mkinitrd before I could get / to use ext3. It had worked fine until the latest upgrade to kernel 2.4.8-34.1mdk. Now it kicks out trying to do an fsck because hdb2 is already mounted. Earlier in the boot process it loaded the ext3 module and checked the journal for hdb2, then shortly after loading devfs, it again tries to fsck hdb2 and halts the process with the error message stating that hdb2 is already mounted. I have tried creating a new mkinitrd with the 2.4.8-34.1mdk kernel but I still get this message. Any ideas or is this a known bug? I have researched the lists and could not find this mentioned yet. = SI Reasoning [EMAIL PROTECTED] "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

Now that I think about it, since I had cooker as my source this happened and the normal user of 8.1 wouldn't have this happen cause they would't have cooker for their updates.

[Cooker] Updating pkgs on cooker system
As of this morning if rpmdrake is used to to update pkgs on a system currently running cooker, rpmdrake is STILL attempting to install the packages rather than upgrade them, so because of conflics with the already installed pkgs none can be done. Today when there are only 12 pkgs, downloading them manually and then installing as a group with rpm -Uvh *rpm is not that much of a pain. But if I go 2 or 3 days there can be as many as 40 or 50 pkgs which need to be upgraded and doing that many manually IS a pain. Charles
