I guess we are talking of the patch that Tso wrote to make 8.04 see the ext4
partitions, right? Correct me if I am wrong.

This is a very large and invasive change, and is not one that we would
backport to a stable release.

I would say no at this time---It's not very long until 10.04 when ext4
will be the standard, which will render the point moot. I'm currently
with 9.10 & have used ext4 from it's early release. It has matured very
well & looks ready for wide deployment with the next LTS.

Has someone already created an issue in launchpad for this, so we can all track
its progress?
I would like to see that this topic is not forgotten. Can't have Ubuntu
regressing to a more windows like state
Hopefully a merge between libblkid and libvolume_id wont be too far
away. Sounds like the best option.

Thank you Scott--
That explains in a way that makes sense to me--As of right now, having
EXT4 work with the system in it's present form is far better that not
having it working at all.I do look forward to the day that both

Ext4 seems to be working well none the less.

At the time when I made the statement in the EXT4 HOWTO, vol_id didn't
understand difference between ext4dev and ext4 filesystems. The bigger
problem which is a major issue for people like me who are creating
plenty of test filesystems is that vol_id patches to mount has the
Windows-like property
Yes--Thank you Colin---I look forward to test EXT4. As for the question

Thanks Colin, That is good news!
I guess with the testing of Ext4 from tomorrow we'll know better for
vol_id and blkid.

Is there discussion about the reasoning in breaking from all the
upstream for vol_id? There must be some reason yet googleing and review
of mailing lists has provided me with nothing except a empty blueprint.
Is there some legacy code we are trying to support? I see in Colin's
post that there is a
Tomorrow's daily builds of Jaunty should support ext4 installation and
booting. I'm aware that there is a difference of opinion about vol_id
vs. blkid but don't want to get into that myself; it at least doesn't
seem to immediately impede the ability to install and boot.

I believe the current version of e2fsprogs within Jaunty is the latest
or at least what is required for Ext4.
Grub2 also working well for me.

This patch orginated from Quentin Godfroy
So we have the 2.6.28 Kernel with Ext4 support now. Just waiting for it
to appear in the installer. Have also filed a bug against the version of
Grub2 within Jaunty and a wishlist for an Alternate install ISO with
Grub2 being default. Please see bug #312310.

I have to agree that now would be a perfect time to bring in Kernel
2.6.28 and introduce Ext4 to the dev cycle. At least by option. F-10 has
already included it, it has already been 'deemed' stable so i don't see
any point in waiting.
I cannot confirm but i have read somewhere that it is now boota
Ver 2.14.1 is out upstream

For proper testing a 2.6.28 kernel should be used.

As we are now getting into Jaunty development, I will ask that this be
reviewed...Jaunty would be a ideal time to do testing of the EXT4
filesystem---plenty of time before the next LTS to shake all of the bugs
out. There is a thread in Jaunty development about
this..http://ubuntuforums.org/show
I was of the undertsanding that work was in progress to merge the
various filesystem detection libraries into util-linux upstream... is
that still the case?
