#105 e2fsprogs update
Please update e2fsprogs http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net to most recent version.
The current version refuses to work with modern disks (for example, WD Red 4TB) and requires updating.
I tried to compile a new version from source, but failed.
I think that updating the e2fsprogs version in the firmware will help many people solve problems with disks. Thanks!
What errors are displayed?
What is your box model?
Do you have an active swap partition? (low memory on DNS-323/321)
Was the fs created on the box or on a PC (32/64 bits issues)
There are several users with 8 and 12TB disks that didn't complain.
If a e2fsprogs package is released, it will be stored on disk, and it will not be used until the disk is mounted; until that point the fw-resident fsck will be used.
In any case, try installing the attached pkg, run fsck manually and please report back.
Model is DNS-325.
I cloned partitions from an old disk, which began to show dangerous errors in SMART. I used linux PC (Debian) for this. After cloning, I checked the partitions using fsck on a linux PC without errors.
But after installing the disk in DNS-325 (Alt-f 1.0), the data partition /dev/sda2 is mounted in Read-Only with an error.
But thanks for the e2fsprogs from entware. I installed it, made a symlink to it in /usr/sbin and the check went fine. The partition was mounted in RW.
