Package: linux-image-4.9.0-2-amd64
Version: 4.9.13-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch upstream
Hi!
After rebooting one of my systems with 4.9.x I got hit by the following
error:
[ 309.934171] EXT4-fs (dm-5): mounting ext3 file system using the ext4
subsystem
[ 309.934748] EXT4-fs (dm-5): first meta block group too large: 1 (group
descriptor block count 1)
Unfortunately for me this is my /var filesystem.
This is https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194567 and got fixed
by https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/728066/
Rebuilding the kernel with the patch applied allows my system to mount
and boot again. Please add the fix to the next release, should be fix
not be included in a stable release until then.
Grüße,
Sven.
