Description of problem: The autofs automounter cannot mount ext3 filesystems. It claims "filesystem needs repair, won't mount" even when the filesystem is clean. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): autofs-4.1.2-2 How reproducible: Attempt to mount an ext3 filesystem which is mapped in an autofs map. It will fail. An iso9660 filesystem works (i.e. a CD). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add a line like this to /etc/auto.master: /local /etc/auto.local --timeout 60 2. In /etc/auto.local, have a line like this: l1 -fstype=ext3,rw :/dev/hda2 3. Make sure /dev/hda2 is clean by running fsck manually. Now try to trigger automounting by changing to /local/l1. Actual results: May 24 02:17:52 XXXXX automount[29612]: mount(ext2): /dev/hda2: filesystem needs repair, won't mount May 24 02:17:52 XXXXX automount[29612]: failed to mount /local/l1 Expected results: Filesystem is mounted. Additional info:
Try autofs-4.1.2-6 from: http://people.redhat.com/~jmoyer/ -Jeff
Excellent, that worked. Thanks!
Can this be pushed out as a fix, then? Thanks.
FC4 has version autofs 4.1.4. FC2 is no longer supported
