EXT-fs error:

[Lon3Wolf]

Since I'm new here, let me first say that Sailx is a great distro. I'm not new to Linux, but I am new to Salix and I've used Slackware few years ago, but only for a short time.

About the problem;
- The only error I have seen so far while using Salix is the one that I see after I turn on my laptop and the boot process starts. First line I see is "Bios data check successful" and right after it, I see these lines (from dmesg);

Code: Select all

EXT3-fs (sda1): error: couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (240)
EXT2-fs (sda1): error: couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (240)
EXT4-fs (sda1): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode
VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 8:1.
devtmpfs: mounted

I installed Salix on newly formated EXT4 partition and here's how my disk is partitioned;

Code: Select all

root@darkstar:~# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 100.0 GB, 100030242816 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 12161 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x000f0c6b

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *           1       12111    97280000   83  Linux
/dev/sda2           12111       12162      404480   82  Linux swap

My system is working fine, but I wonder what would be the right way to fix/remove this error in Salix/Slackware.
If you need more info, let me know.

I can confirm I get the same error.

Code: Select all

Oct 31 00:57:39 darkstar kernel: EXT3-fs (sda1): error: couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (240)
Oct 31 00:57:39 darkstar kernel: EXT2-fs (sda1): error: couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (240) Oct 31 00:57:39 darkstar kernel: VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 8:1.

Everything seems to run fine though.
