This is the new version (1.18) of the second extended file system management programs. From time to time, I release new versions of e2fsprogs, to fix bugs and to make the utilities more robust. You can always find information about the latest version at the the e2fsprogs web page, which is: http://web.mit.edu/tytso/www/linux/e2fsprogs.html Note: If you are using the RedHat RPM distributions of e2fsprogs, don't worry about the next paragraph; all others, please read on! See the file INSTALL for instructions on building and installing e2fsprogs. This is important! Note that your /etc/fstab file may need modifying before you install the new fsck program. See the INSTALL file for more details. In case of bugs in these programs, please contact Ted Ts'o at tytso@valinux.com or tytso@alum.mit.edu. See the e2fsck man page for suggestions of what sort of information to include when submitting bug reports for these programs.
