A follow up: |
43 |
|
44 |
A partition that had no problems at all with ext4 earlier... |
45 |
|
46 |
... again got stuck during mkfs.reiserfs. The journal creation progress |
47 |
reached 100%, then... nothing. |
48 |
|
49 |
System stuck totally. After about 15 minutes, ssh session died. Console |
50 |
session totally unresponsive. |
51 |
|
52 |
I will retry using mkntfs. |
