Fwd: lfs fail during 6.26

2014-08-16 Thread Michael Havens 
cool! I was watching the text scroll by and noticed a red 'fail'. I tried
to go up to the 'fail' but the terminal wouldn't let me and by the time it
had finished the 'fail' was way past the buffer. I need to know if the
following (the commands you are supposed to enter with the package) plus my
modifications ('>>' and 'cat {*.fail}|grep fail') will reveal what failed
so I can google it.

{FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 ./configure \
--prefix=/usr\
--enable-no-install-program=kill,uptime}>>config.fail
make >>make.fail
make NON_ROOT_USERNAME=nobody check-root>>check.fail
echo "dummy:x:1000:nobody" >> /etc/group
chown -Rv nobody .
{su nobody -s /bin/bash \
  -c "PATH=$PATH make RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes check"}>>test.fail
sed -i '/dummy/d' /etc/group
make install>>install.fail

Let's see. Top posting, overquoting, and thread hijacking. The only

Re: defrag

2014-08-16 Thread Stephen Partington 
technicaly its half true.

Modern Linux filesystem(s) keep fragmentation at a minimum by keeping all
blocks in a file close together, even if they can't be stored in
consecutive sectors. Some filesystems, like ext3, effectively allocate the
free block that is nearest to other blocks in a file. Therefore it is not
necessary to worry about fragmentation in a Linux system."

While ext3 is more resistant to file fragmentation than the FAT
 filesystem, ext3 can
get fragmented over time or for specific usage patterns, like slowly
writing large files. Consequently, ext4 (the successor to ext3) has an
online filesystem defragmentation utility e4defrag and currently supports
extents  (contiguous
file regions).

defrag

2014-08-16 Thread Michael Havens 
I have been taught that a Linux file system doesn't fragment. HOwever I'm
was looking at Linux from scratch (section 6.25.2) and have discovered that
isn't true. A couple of the programs the e2fsprogs installs are:

*e2freefrag*

Reports free space fragmentation information


and





  *e4defrag*

Online defragmenter for ext4 filesystems

Well. maybe I learned it doesn't need to be defragmented. However,
e4defrag seems to indicate it does need to be defragged. Could I get some
comments?
