Ext2Fsd Project

Ext2Fsd 0.69 released !

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

Unsupported Ext3/4 features:

  1, 64BIT mode (to support 2^64 blocks)
  2, journal: log-based operations, external journal

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!
