Summary: e2fsprogs is not working in 1.1.0
Description:
all program from e2fsprogs(e2label, e2fsck, mke2fs) is not working in PPC.
I`m using ppc-405. and, crosscompiled busybox.
but, new version of busybox(1.1.0) does not read existing ext2 superblock.
so, I make new filesystem with mke2fs(from 1.1.0). but, it cannot be
mounted(kernel refuse).
after mkfs, e2label can read label successfully. but, cannot mount.
[relook400 /]$ e2label /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3
DG_DB1
[relook400 /]$ mount /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 /var/data -t
ext2
VFS: Can't find ext2 filesystem on dev hda3.
mount: Mounting /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 on /var/data
failed: Invalid argument
[relook400 /]$
is it endian problem ?

busybox implementation of mkfs.ext2/mkfs.ext3 also fails on x86 systems
when building filesystems > 2050 Mbytes. (Discovered while using GParted
LiveCD distro 0.2.2-1)

uhh, did you enable LFS ? ive created ext partitions on 32bit arm machines
that were over 200gigs and i didnt have any trouble

Thanks for the tip: I've passed that back to the GParted LiveCD distro
folks.

do you mean CONFIG_LFS?
below is a part of my .config file that was used to build.
#
# Build Options
#
# CONFIG_STATIC is not set
CONFIG_LFS=y
USING_CROSS_COMPILER=y
CROSS_COMPILER_PREFIX="powerpc-405-linux-gnu-"
EXTRA_CFLAGS_OPTIONS=""
# CONFIG_FEATURE_SUSv2 is not set
# CONFIG_FEATURE_SUSv2_OBSOLETE is not set
and, it has CONFIG_LFS.
ARM is running under BIG Endian? I don`t have experience on ARM chip.

Hyun: my LFS thing was not geared at you ... there is a known issue with
e2fsprogs and big endian hosts in busybox 1.1.0 ... my arm test was with
little endian
you should grab the latest nightly snapshot and see if it works any better
for you
