Summary     : Utilities for managing the second extended (ext2) filesystem.
Description :
The e2fsprogs package contains a number of utilities for creating,
checking, modifying, and correcting any inconsistencies in second
extended (ext2) filesystems. E2fsprogs contains e2fsck (used to
repair filesystem inconsistencies after an unclean shutdown), mke2fs
(used to initialize a partition to contain an empty ext2 filesystem),
debugfs (used to examine the internal structure of a filesystem, to
manually repair a corrupted filesystem, or to create test cases for
e2fsck), tune2fs (used to modify filesystem parameters), and most of
the other core ext2fs filesystem utilities.

You should install the e2fsprogs package if you need to manage the
performance of an ext2 filesystem.

# fdisk /dev/sdb
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 8924.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

RESIZE2FS(8)                                                      RESIZE2FS(8)

NAME
       resize2fs - ext2 file system resizer

SYNOPSIS
       resize2fs [ -d debug-flags ] [ -f ] [ -F ] [ -p ] device [ size ]

DESCRIPTION
       The resize2fs program will resize ext2 file systems.  It can be used to
       enlarge or shrink an ext2 file system located on device so that it will
       have  size  blocks.   If  the  size parameter is not specified, it will
       default to the size of the partition.  The size parameter may never  be
       larger than the size of the partition.

       The  resize2fs  program does not manipulate the size of partitions.  If
       you wish to enlarge a filesystem, you must  first  make  sure  you  can
       expand  the  size  of the underlying partition first.  This can be done
       using fdisk(8) by deleting the  partition  and  recreating  it  with  a
       larger  size.   When  recreating the partition, make sure you create it
       with the same starting disk cylinder as before!  Otherwise, the  resize
       operation  will  certainly  not  work,  and  you  may  lose your entire
       filesystem.

       If you wish to shrink an ext2 partition, first use resize2fs to  shrink
       the  size  of filesystem.  Then you may use fdisk(8) to shrink the size
       of the partition.  When shrinking the size of the partition, make  sure
       you do not make it smaller than the new size of the ext2 filesystem!

OPTIONS
       -d debug-flags
              Turns on various resize2fs debugging features, if they have been
              compiled into the binary.  debug-flags  should  be  computed  by
              adding  the  numbers  of the desired features from the following
              list:
                   1    - Print out all disk I/O
                   2    - Debug block relocations
                   8    - Debug inode relocations
                   16   - Debug moving the inode table

       -p     Prints out a percentage completion bars for each resize2fs oper-
              ation,  so  that  the user can keep track of what the program is
              doing.

       -f     Forces resize2fs to proceed with the  filesystem  resize  opera-
              tion,  overriding  some  safety  checks which resize2fs normally
              enforces.

       -F     Flush the filesystem device's buffer  caches  before  beginning.
              Only really useful for doing resize2fs time trials.
