Hi, List!
In my journey to discover kernel 2.6 I get this error trying to reiserfsck
/dev/sda1 (usb flash disk, 128 MB)
bash-2.05b# reiserfsck --check /dev/sda1
reiserfsck 3.6.11 (2003 http://www.namesys.com)
*************************************************************
** If you are using the latest reiserfsprogs and it fails **
** please email bug reports to [email protected], **
** providing as much information as possible -- your **
** hardware, kernel, patches, settings, all reiserfsck **
** messages (including version), the reiserfsck logfile, **
** check the syslog file for any related information. **
** If you would like advice on using this program, support **
** is available for $25 at http://www.namesys.com/support.html. **

Will read-only check consistency of the filesystem on /dev/sda1
Will put log info to 'stdout'
Do you want to run this program?[N/Yes] (note need to type Yes if you
do):Yes
Failed to open the journal device ((null)).
An strace tell me:
brk(0) = 0x809c000
brk(0x809d000) = 0x809d000

read(4, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 4096)

write(2, "Failed to open the journal devic"..., 44Failed to open the
journal device ((null)).
) = 44
fsync(4) = 0
I expect reiserfsck to treat this device as any other device.
Mount /dev/sda1 works.
Any advice, please?
Thank you!
P.S. More informations on request.
