Ext2Fsd Project (original) (raw)

WARNINGS:

Don't use Ext2Fsd 0.68 or earlier versions with latest Ubuntu or Debian systems. Ext2Fsd 0.68 cannot process EXT4 with 64-BIT mode enabled, then it could corrupt your data. Very sorry for this disaster issue, I'm working on an improvement.

Features implemented and bugfix:

1, FIXME: superblock corruption of EXT4 volumes with 64BIT mode enabled 
2, FIXME: possible corruption by race conditions in buffer-head reapering
3, FIXME: possible deadlock issues (when flushing) caused by BCB locks
4, FIXME: miscellaneous minor updates of Ext2Fsd code base

Supported Ext3/4 features:

1, flexible inode size: > 128 bytes, up to block size
2, dir_index:    htree directory index
3, filetype:     extra file mode in dentry
4, large_file:   > 4G files supported
5, sparse_super: super block backup in group descriptor
6, uninit_bg:    fast fsck and group checksum
7, extent:       full support with extending and shrinking.
8, journal:      only support replay for internal journal
9, flex_bg:      first flexible metadata group

10, symlink and hardlink 11, Mount-as-user: specified uid/gid supported

WARNINGS:

The driver may crash your system and ruin your data unexpectedly,
since there might be software conflicts and I could only test it
on some of the popular platforms. You should use it with care and
use it at your own risk!
