51 <p>Upgraded sonslinux to SuSE 8.2</p>
53 <div id="more" class="entry-more">
54 <p>I was interested in how to install Linux and yet keep an old file system. In particular I had my music files on sonslinux and wished to keep them. While installing SuSE I attempted to save the /home file system. Unfortunately when SuSE boots I get:</p>
57 sonslinux:~ # fsck /home
58 fsck 1.28 (31-Aug-2002)
59 e2fsck 1.28 (31-Aug-2002)
60 fsck.ext3: E2fsck not compiled with HTREE support,
61 but filesystem /dev/hda6 has HTREE directories.
63 <p>e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck!<br />
64 fsck.ext3 /dev/hda6 failed (status 0x8). Run manually!<br />
67 <p>Apparenlty Mandrake used some HTREE structures on that file system. While this FS will not fsck it does mount and appears to be accessible.</p>
