Public bug reported: I attached a disk from non-x86 network drive to x86 host. It has two RAID partitions on it and an ext4 data partition. I installed lvm2 in hope to get access to the RAID. The data partition has block size of 64KB and x86 was unable to mount it. I suspect the RAID has same blocksize and is causing this problem, but have no evidence.
Here info on the data partition: kohtala@verkkolevy:~$ sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sdb4 tune2fs 1.45.5 (07-Jan-2020) Filesystem volume name: <none> Last mounted on: /shares Filesystem UUID: 77c9c286-fda8-43ca-9353-671ea3baf1dc Filesystem magic number: 0xEF53 Filesystem revision #: 1 (dynamic) Filesystem features: has_journal ext_attr resize_inode dir_index filetype extent flex_bg sparse_super large_file huge_file uninit_bg dir_nlink extra_isize Filesystem flags: unsigned_directory_hash Default mount options: (none) Filesystem state: clean Errors behavior: Continue Filesystem OS type: Linux Inode count: 45565440 Block count: 45714848 Reserved block count: 0 Free blocks: 968394 Free inodes: 44956388 First block: 0 Block size: 65536 Fragment size: 65536 Reserved GDT blocks: 32 Blocks per group: 65528 Fragments per group: 65528 Inodes per group: 65280 Inode blocks per group: 255 Flex block group size: 16 Filesystem created: Mon Apr 16 01:32:59 2012 Last mount time: Mon Mar 18 08:03:24 2019 Last write time: Wed Jan 13 08:14:12 2021 Mount count: 0 Maximum mount count: 31 Last checked: Wed Jan 13 08:14:12 2021 Check interval: 15552000 (6 months) Next check after: Mon Jul 12 09:14:12 2021 Lifetime writes: 2737 GB Reserved blocks uid: 0 (user root) Reserved blocks gid: 0 (group root) First inode: 11 Inode size: 256 Required extra isize: 28 Desired extra isize: 28 Journal inode: 8 Default directory hash: half_md4 Directory Hash Seed: ef140d1f-e748-816f-33cd-cea961984b9a Journal backup: inode blocks ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: lvm2 2.03.07-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.8.0-41.46~20.04.1-generic 5.8.18 Uname: Linux 5.8.0-41-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.14 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip Date: Sat Jan 30 17:27:39 2021 ErrorMessage: installed lvm2 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 Python3Details: /usr/bin/python3.8, Python 3.8.5, python3-minimal, 3.8.2-0ubuntu2 PythonDetails: N/A RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.19.7ubuntu3 apt 2.0.4 SourcePackage: lvm2 Title: package lvm2 2.03.07-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: installed lvm2 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: lvm2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-package focal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1913882 Title: Install crash with foreign block size ext4 fs present To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lvm2/+bug/1913882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
