Description Bill Nottingham 2004-09-14 16:51:33 UTC

e2fsck supports -C <fd> to output progress data to an auxillary
filedescriptor.

However, /sbin/fsck doesn't properly handle this option.

/sbin/fsck -C4 /dev/sda1
gets translated to:

e2fsck -4 -C0 /dev/sda1

Comment 1 Thomas Woerner 2004-09-16 15:31:54 UTC

e2fsprogs-1.35-9.5:

e2fsck -C4 -f /tmp/boot.img 4> test
Has written completion information to test.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2004-09-16 18:58:58 UTC

It works in e2fsck, but you can't pass it to /sbin/fsck and get it
passed right. i.e., /sbin/fsck -C4 -f /tmp/boot.img wouldn't work.

Comment 3 Thomas Woerner 2004-09-17 14:15:24 UTC

Fixed in rawhide in rpm e2fsprogs-1.35-11 or newer.
