Hey there fellow Windows 7 beta testers. So I have to go into the control panel and assign the drive letters every time I boot into windows. Any help? Is this a Ubuntu or a Windows forum? Write an e-mail to Bill microsoft. Hi, I'll give the same answer I would to a paying client: Win 7 is beta. Beta as applied to software means "we know it's broken but don't know where yet".
Congrats - you've found something broken. The folks at fs-driver. MS might actually want to know about this.
But I rather doubt they read these forums looking for QA reports on their product, after all MS has their own forums for Win 7, plus a quick google shows many, many more.
Such as the Other OS here in Ubuntu-land. Just sayin' you need to fish where they're bitin' is all ;. So, I concluded that I would return to where I first heard about the windows ext2 driver - this forum. But you're right, I will at least contact the makers of the driver, because obviously they would probably like to be aware of this issue. You got it to read the file system? Better than I can get; Windows 7 will mount my EXT3 file systems, but asks me to format it every time I want to access it that, and it unmounts at reboot XD.
Somewhere around the end of last year the default inode size for ext3 filesystems was changed from bytes to bytes. So if you installed Hardy fresh, I think you probably got the new size. Unfortunately, the ext2 driver from fs-driver. So, if you want it fixed, you'll have to move all your files to a temporary location, format a new Ext3 partition with inode size of bytes probably using linux terminal programs from the LiveCD would be best , and then move all your files back.
But before you go to all that trouble, use mountdiag. Just sayin' you need to fish where they're bitin' is all " Since when is this a forum for pompus assholes with no useful information?
Your posts have absoloutly no value. Go to a forum that wants useless comments if you just want to stuff your nose in the air at people that need help. As for the original poster, I just got the last rtm version up and running, i'll let you know what i can do with the ext2ifs driver in a later post.
There is no need to copy files from or to Ext2 volumes in order to work with them. Free YouTube Downloader. IObit Uninstaller. Internet Download Manager. Advanced SystemCare Free. VLC Media Player.

How did you get that idea? Just look at the ability of X11 to bring Linux machines down. DirectX also runs in the kernel, btw. GDI, on the other hand, is written by Microsoft whom I trust to know their own kernel. Actually X11 with good free drivers will almost never bring Linux down. It will kill your monitor, kdb and mouse though. You can almost always get network access still…. Microsoft is very much partitioned in its development scheme and the right hand is quite literally free to never watch what the left hand does.
This is partially why the company can still get things done. Maybe they have some good internal magazine or something to keep everyone informed about technical things they need to know. This is not quite necessarily so. If the data is just pixel data, you can possibly end up with gibberish on the screen, but not a crash.
If the data forms commands for the video card, you can indeed end up crashing it if you screw these up. The same goes for most types of hardware. Usually, a kernel does sanity checking on commands sent to hardware, but this costs performance.
Video is usually an area where nobody is willing to take performance hits, which is why bugs in video drivers which get increasingly complex have such an impact on system stability. The very nature of hard disks and access to them will cause file fragmentation over time. Some filesystems handle this better than others. Also, most linux distributions go through automagic defragmentation. I think an optimized ext2 implementation should be faster then NTFS, simply because it is a simpler file system, but we are past simply looking for raw speed, FAT is faster then NTFS, but features are now more important then raw speed, people are willing to pay an overhead for journaling, among other things.
And I think there could be some bragging rights if a OSS file system could plug in and out perform NTFS is stability and preformance while being effectivly transperent to the user i.
However, FAT is quite inefficient both in terms of disk space usage and transaction speed. Also, you should read its spec docs from MS for a laugh. You were relying on security by obscurity. Anybody with physical access to the machine and a simple bootable CD would have been able to access it any time anyway.
NB: The same goes for the other way around. No need to provide a password. Leaves no traces. How about decent ntfs support in linux, as default. Now that would be tempting. That and the fact that NTFS is esentially undocumented at least publicly. Is there a way to access those from Windows?
This is the perfect opportunity for me to mention ReiserDriver, which is an equivalent driver for ReiserFS. I am currently finishing up the project, although functional pre-releases are already available. The source code is based off of ext2fsd, which is a reasonably mature file system driver around for much longer than the one mentioned in this post. FFSdrv is based off of the same architecture. In the coming months, I may work towards unifying these codebases, and isolating further isolating file system-specific code, so that support for additional file systems can easily be added.
As the situation stands now, the IFS is one of the most complicated and least intuitive portions of the Windows kernel. Holy crap! This is incredible. How has this gone unnoticed? It should be on the front page of slashdot. It is how the network is hooked in.
