E2fsprogs 1.14 (January 9, 1999) ================================ Fix the fstab parsing code so that it can handle blank lines and comment characters. Also, missing pass numbers need to be treated as zero. Fixed a bug in e2fsck where under some circumstances (when e2fsck needs to restart processing after fixing an egregious inconsistency) it would try to access already freed memory. E2fsck now prints non-printable characters in directory entries and pathnames using '^' and 'M-' notation. Fixed chattr so that it will ignore symbolic links when doing recursive descent traversals. For both chattr and lsattr, no longer print the version string unless the -V option is given. Allow the system administrator to directly specify the number of inodes desired in the filesystem, for some special cases where this is necessary. Fix portability problems so that e2fsprogs can be compiled under Linux 1.2 systems and Solaris systems. Update the config.guess file with a more recent version that will identify newer Linux platforms. Programmer's notes ------------------ Ext2fs_read_inode and ext2fs_write_inode will now return an error if an inode number of zero is passed to them.
