Re[2]: [ext2resize] Re[2]: Problem with ext2online

[<ber...@pa...>]

Cheers for that. I put the line into the fs/Config.in file and finally the line
appeared into the "make xconfig". I selected the option and make the kernel. I
bounced the box and did a quick resize and it WORKS perfectly.

As a matter of testing, I used the load testing script described in one of your
web page and didn;t have any problem. I will carry on using it and if I have any
problem, I will report it to you.

Well done guys, it is a major improvment to Linux.

Cheers.
Bertrand Sirodot.

My mistake, sorry about that.  It appears to have fallen out of the
recent patches, as I was also working with InterMezzo and OBDFS (real
job) in the same kernel tree as ext2online, and I accidentally deleted
the config option along with the other (non-ext2online related) changes
to Config.in.  What you need is:

if [ "$CONFIG_EXT2_FS" != "n" -a "$CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL" = "y" ]; then
  bool '  Online ext2 resize support (DANGEROUS)' CONFIG_EXT2_RESIZE
fi

in fs/Config.in, after the CONFIG_EXT2_FS option (same for 2.2 and 2.3).

I've added this to the kernel patches in the CVS tree and they will make
it into the next release, and I've split my kernel development into
separate trees to avoid this problem in the future.

Cheers, Andreas
