As RELEASE-NOTES says: "All of the patches that were applied to Fedore Core 3's e2fsprogs-1.35-11.2 have been integrated, although sometimes with a lot of bug fixes first. Users of Fedora Core 3 are strongly encouraged to upgrade to e2fsprogs 1.36 as soon as possible. Add support for filesystem with the online resizing via resize inode feature. Fixed numerous bugs from the Fedora patches. The Fedora patches also didn't bother to do any consistency checking on the resize inode, or add any tests to the regression test suite. The "-R resize=4g" option to mke2fs was a no-op in the Fedora patches, despite being listed in mke2fs's usage message. All of these shortcomings have been corrected. E2fsck can also also fix filesystems trashed by Fedora's resize2fs program. In order to do this, the user must run the commands: debugfs -w /dev/hdXXX -R "features ^resize_inode e2fsck -f /dev/hdXXX Optionally, the ext2prepare command can be used to re-enable online resizing after the filesystem has been fixed. The fsck program will now accept an optional filedescriptor argument to the -C option. (The Fedora version of this patch would sometimes cause fsck to ignore a parameter on fsck's command line in some rare cases, sigh.)" -thanks-
