Should be reopened. The bug is still here in FC2T2 and FC2T3. I cannot format jfs partition during install. And even recompiling jfsutils-1.1.4-1.src.rpm didn't help me. BTW version 1.1.6 is already out. this bug is happening on FC2T2 and FC2T3 here too. Tried rebuilding from source and didnt work. Seeing this on an up2date FC2 system trying to format 1.9TB. Why was this bug closed? There's bug 122603 on the same subject. However , never got an answer about the things I found out and posted there. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; OpenBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.6a) Gecko/20040107 Description of problem: Running "Fedora Core release 1.90 (FC2 Test 1)" on a Dell 1750, patched up to last night and running kernel 2.6.3-1.97smp. Whenever i run jfs_mkfs i was getting an error message, so i grabbed the 1.1.3 src for jfsutils in order to compile a jfs_mkfs with more debugging clues. But by compiling the stock src and running the resultant binary, i was able to format the same partition. That is, # jfs_mkfs /dev/sda2 jfs_mkfs version 1.1.3, 05-Sep-2003 Warning! All data on device /dev/sda2 will be lost! Continue? (Y/N) y The specified disk did not finish formatting. # mkfs/jfs_mkfs /dev/sda2 mkfs/jfs_mkfs version 1.1.3, 05-Sep-2003 ujfs_get_dev_size: size = 10487232000 number of blocks = 2560359 Warning! All data on device /dev/sda2 will be lost! Continue? (Y/N) y size of dinode = 512 size of dinode = 512 Format completed successfully. 10241437 kilobytes total disk space. In the above, jfs_mkfs is the binary that came with the system and mkfs/jfs_mkfs is the one i compiled. After succesful formatting by mkfs/jfs_mkfs, i tried running jfs_mkfs again and it failed the same way. mkfs/jfs_mkfs worked again, and i've since been able to mount and run benchmarks against the jfs partition. Was the system's jfsutils built against the wrong libraries? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): jfsutils-1.1.3-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. jfs_mkfs /dev/partition 2. 3. Actual Results: The specified disk did not finish formatting. Expected Results: a formatted partition! Additional info:
