Hi everybody,

could anybody please tell me the implementation status of ext3 (or patches
for ext2 to make it resizeable)?

Even without a LVM ext3/ext2 (resizeable while mounted) could get very
usefull. I think about having a BIG rootFS with some files (1 per user),
which get mounted over loop when needed. The files can be resized as needed
- if the filesystem allows it.

I've already heard some things about ext2 and ext3 - what's truth and
what's imagination?


regards, 
Ph.
