Empeg Ext3 Archived Files

First of all the bits and pieces. All these files are gzipped so you will need to uncompress them before using them...



Update! All the patches below have been integrated into hijack so you should just grab that patch instead as it is more up to date. However, I will leave the patches below up for archive purposes.


patch I had to upgrade the linux kernel from version 2.2.14 to version 2.2.17. This is a patch that will upgrade the linux kernel tree available at Mark Lord's site to that version. Some portions of the kernel are actually a little newer than 2.2.17 because I had to upgrade bits and pieces farther to get ext3 patched all the way to 0.0.7. This is now part of hijack.
patch This patch is for ext3 support. It is basically ext3 version 0.0.7a tweaked slightly to patch against the empeg kernel tree. This is now part of hijack although it is disabled by default.
patch This patch is version 298 of the excellent hijack system modified to patch cleanly on top of the above patches. This also includes the voladj and rdsfake patches. This is optional but highly recommended.
patch This patch updates the kernel to try to mount all ext2 partitions as ext3 and if that fails then fallback to ext2. With this patch the kernel should "do the write thing" when mounting any partition. You do not need to modify /etc/fstab, /sbin/init, or any other player files. This is now part of hijack.
