To install the second extended file system management programs, |
|
just follow the steps: |
|
|
|
1) Change directory into the top of the e2fsprogs source tree |
|
|
|
2) Create a build directory and cd into it: |
|
|
|
mkdir build; cd build |
|
|
|
3) Run the configure script |
|
|
|
../configure |
|
|
|
If you wish to turn on ELF shared libraries, add the option |
|
--enable-elf-shlibs. If you wish to build profiling libraries, add |
|
the option --enable-profile. |
|
|
|
Note that if you are building on an older system (i.e., a 2.4 |
|
kernel and/or glibc 2.2), the use of thread local storage will probably |
|
cause programs that use the uuid library to core dump. To disable |
|
thread local storage, use the configure option --disable-tls. |
|
|
|
4) Compile the programs |
|
|
|
make |
|
|
|
5) Check to make sure the installation built correctly: |
|
|
|
make check |
|
|
|
6) Install the programs |
|
|
|
Run `make install' |
|
|
|
7) Install the include files and libraries |
|
|
|
You can run `make install-libs' to install the include files and |
|
libraries. Please note that this installation is not needed for the |
|
programs to work. It is only needed if you expect to develop other |
|
programs using the libraries or if you want to compile other program |
|
using these libraries (like the 4.4BSD dump and restore port). |
|
|
|
8) Remove any pre-formatted man pages. |
|
|
|
Some distributions will have pre-formatted manual pages which |
|
will always be displayed in preference to newer man pages in /usr/man. |
|
If this is the case, you may need to manually remove them in order to |
|
see the correct manual pages. The shell script in |
|
install-utils/remove_preformat_manpages may be helpful in doing so. |
|
|
|
9) Make sure your /etc/fstab file is correct. |
|
|
|
Some distributions install an /etc/fstab which is missing the |
|
fifth and sixth field of filesystem entry, which are the dump |
|
frequency, and the fsck pass number, respectively. The problem with |
|
this is that the getmntent() library routine interprets those missing |
|
fields as "0", and a pass number of 0 is documented as meaning that |
|
fsck should not check that particular filesystem. If your entries in |
|
your /etc/fstab file look liks this: |
|
|
|
/dev/hda4 / ext2 defaults |
|
|
|
you should add "1 1" at the end of each line, so that they look like this: |
|
|
|
/dev/hda4 / ext2 defaults 1 1 |
|
|
|
There is a script in install-utils/convfstab (donated by |
|
Michael Weller) that may help you correct your /etc/fstab file. |
