Description Jesse Zbikowski 2005-05-10 17:39:09 UTC 
When my init scripts try to fsck a reiserfs partition, I get the error message
that I don't have fsck.ReiserFS installed.  Thus my partition is never checked.  sys-fs/reiserfsprogs installs /sbin/fsck.reiserfs as a symlink to /sbin/reiserfsck, but not /sbin/fsck.ReiserFS.  Adding this symlink by hand solves the problem.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. fsck /dev/REISERFSPARTITION (or let /etc/init.d/checkroot or checkfs run)
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Error message that I don't have fsck.ReiserFS

Expected Results:  
Partition should have been fsck'd by /sbin/reiserfsck

May also affect sys-fs/reiser4progs

sym /sbin/fsck.reiserfs -> reiserfsck 1107374937

Just wanted to make clear that
/sbin/fsck.reiserfs != /sbin/fsck.ReiserFS
It's fsck.ReiserFS that gets invoked by fsck!
Comment 3 Jesse Zbikowski 2005-05-10 22:31:11 UTC 
Ok, I see that if I use "reiserfs" instead of "ReiserFS" in my /etc/fstab
then this problem goes away!
