first experience with defrag: have slight problem.
I have installed the Debian defrag v 0.61-1 package and tried it out.
My partition table looks like
sda1 / 100 Mb
sda2 /usr 400 Mb
sdb1 /var 20 Mb
sdb2 /mnt/sdb2 280 Mb soft linked, contains /usr/local, /usr/src
sdb3 swap 20 Mb
sdc1 /home 1020 Mb
I have successfully e2defrag on sdc1, sdb2, and sdb1 by booting in
single user mode [at lilo prompt, 'linux single'], and first umount
these partitions. However, I cannot defrag sda1 nor sda2 since I
cannot umount these first. I also tried booting with Debian rescue
disk, going into the shell, copying e2defrag onto the ramdisk, and
attempting a defrag of these partitions from there. defrag will not
run since still does not have everything it needs [probably libc5 ?]
I don't think I really want to defrag the root partition (sda1) anyway
do I? How could I defrag sda2 (which I would like to do)?
BTW, the program and graphical progress are great. Reminds me of old
Norton utilities days on DOS!
