E2fsck could damage a filesystem by trying to relocate inode tables
|
||||
due to corrupted block group descriptors, where the attempted inode
|
||||
table relocation would do far more harm than good. E2fsck has been
|
||||
fixed to detect this these sorts of corrupted block group descriptors
|
||||
much earlier in e2fsck processing, so it can try to use the backup
|
||||
superblock and block group descriptors first. This should be a much
|
||||
better strategy for recovering these types of corrupted filesystems.

E2fsck now performs more extensive and careful checks of extended

Enhance mke2fs to print a more explanatory error message when
