Hi!
I have a severe problem - I was a fool and made / (root) ext4 (at
least not /home, thank god) and somehow some corruption occured.
While running fsck, it keeps segfaulting, complaining about fast
memory corruption (segfaults always at the same inode, always when I
tell it to fix it). I *think* the issue was addressed in
e2fsprogs-1.40.2 (from what I understood in the changelog) - but I
can't find a patchset for it...
I tried to do the 1.39 patch on the 1.40.2 source but there were more
then a few mismatches and it didn't build. with enough work, I might
be able to build it, but I strongly prefer a ready patch/tarball which
I know will work and I haven't found any on the net.
Can anyone please point me to one or send one to me, or advise on a
different solution?
Thanks in advance,
Kosta.
