Hello,
I have an SD card which is formatted to ext2.
Unfortunately, I do not remember if I did this with the zaurus or on my desktop machine. But I seem to remember that I used the fdisk and mkfs.ext2 on the Zaurus.
Now I wanted to convert it to ext3 for data safety reasons.
Two questions:
fdisk /dev/mmcda1 on the zaurus says
"Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel, Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous contents won't be recoverable.
Warning: invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by (w)rite"
and if I hit p for print, it reports an empty partition table (although I work daily with the card with no problems). fdisk reports the correct capacity of 1023MB.
What can be the reason?
I've read about a buggy version of fdisk in the Zaurus. But I assumed the Cacko 1.23b1 ROM contains a better version?
How can I make fdisk show its version info?
it is /sbin/fdisk with 75656 bytes in size.
Should I worry about my card?
Second question:
The tune2fs (v 1.19, 13-JUL-2000) version on my zaurus does not have the -j option. So how can I convert that card to ext3 then?
