using kernel 2.4.26, with the latest ntfs patch:
followed the instructions for mounting a loopback ext2 fs on a ntfs partition
mounted rw as noted at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=103089008129720&w=2
mount -t ntfs -o rw /dev/hdb2 /mnt/ntfs
losetup /dev/loop0 /mnt/ntfs/linux.bin
mke2fs -j /dev/loop0
but when i get to
mount -t ext3 /dev/loop0 /mnt/new_root
it fails with mount: "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock or too many
mounted filesystems"
/dev/hdb2 is 150Gb
/mnt/ntfs/linux.bin is 8Gb
what could be wrong? apparently mke2fs isn't making any fs at all on the block
device, but i coulnd't get too far from here :(
