Re: Compile options for standard debian kernel?

2003-06-03 Thread Neal Lippman
Thanks. I actually have 2.4.18-bf24 currently, and UDF isn't mentioned at all in the config file. I thought it was included in the sources for 2.4.18, but that may be wrong. In any case the module does not appear on my system and modconf does not list it, so I need a recompile or update to 2.4.19.

XFS quotas won't turn on

Running Woody with a vanilla 2.4.20 kernel + SGI XFS patch. I've used quotas before, but not with XFS. So maybe I'm missing something... The man pages say that to activate quotas on a root XFS filesystem, you simply do "quotaon -v /". But if I do that, I get "quotaon: quotactl() on /dev/hda1: fun
