parted 1.6.9 (in FC2) tells you that it can't handle ext2/3 filesystems
with dir_index enabled.
You can:
umount /dev/xxx
tune2fs -O^dir_index /dev/xxx
parted
tune2fs -O dir_index /dev/xxx
e2fsck -D /dev/xxx
You don't have to do the e2fsck; the directories will be re-indexed on
the fly IIRC, but you may just want to go ahead and do it rather than
have the overhead later.
Thanks for the near-instantaneous reply. I'll try this later this
evening and let you know how I make out.
After consulting man tune2fs, I follow what you're doing above. I remain
mystified about the source of your information, though. I have FC3t1
running on another box, it reports
[rj@clem rj]$ rpm -q parted
parted-1.6.11-2
[rj@clem rj]$
and I'll be double-dipped if I can find anything in its man page.
