e2fsck hassles relate to FC3 unsupported partioning features
I had the same problem with Mandrake 10.1 alongside FC3 & I've just installed SuSE 9.2 & the same e2fsck problems "unsupported features" with FC3 partitions occur when booting.
It doesn't matter if you use free disc or re-format an existing area, the problem is that the new FC3 ext2 or ext3 formats cannot be mounted by other Linux distros.
Like others I use FC as my preffered Linux system but build my code to run on other distros.
These distros cannot boot after installing when configured to mount a FC3 formatted partition. They will boot, however, if the fstab is edited to remove the mount point commands for the FC3 partitions. That gets them working at least but you won't be able to see your FC3 data.
I never had this annoying problem with FC1 or 2 so I guess the FC3 formatting has changed and e2fsck v1.35 hasn't caught up yet.
I have considered backing up FC3 & rolling back to FC2. Then reformatiing my /home partition & reinstalling FC3 but only re-formatting /. Then I should at least be able to see my own data in /home, but I'm hoping there's an easier answer.
Has anyone found a real solution to this problem yet?
C'est exactement le (nouveau) problème que j'ai. Je n'arrive plus à booter Mandrake, j'ai ce message d'erreur...
