e2fsprogs version 1.25 worked fine for me with kernel 2.4.17. I think that your problem is kernel related. Please send us a copy of the exact error messages you got on boot, then we can investigate it further. -- If you send email to me or to a mailing list that I use which has >4 lines of legalistic junk at the end then you are specifically authorizing me to do whatever I wish with the message and all other messages from your domain, by posting the message you agree that your long legalistic sig is void. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
