Works for me. I just made a filesystem with e2fsprogs from RHEL-4 U2, and mounted on RHEL-3 on a 2.4.21-32.EL kernel. And RHEL-3 can see the resize_inode flag set: # tune2fs -l /dev/hdb tune2fs 1.32 (09-Nov-2002) ... Filesystem revision #: 1 (dynamic) Filesystem features: has_journal resize_inode filetype sparse_super ... As a tune2fs workaround for now, I think "debugfs" (performed from the RHEL-4 box) should work: $ debugfs -w /dev/$FOO debugfs: feature -resize_inode ^D then e2fsck -fy /dev/$FOO to clean up the metadata. use the command "feature -resize_inode". But that still doesn't explain why your fs did not mount. Created attachment 119582 [details]
Patch for tune2fs
Here is a patch for tune2fs to enable creation and removal of the resize_inode
feature. Is is essential to check the filesystem with e2fsck afterwards,
because the 'real' changes to the filesystem are not done by tune2fs.
The patch is in the actual FC 3, 4 and devel trees.
