Hmm. Tail-packing is being worked on for ext3 apparently but still an alpha feature.
I do think you can get that extra space if you really need it. But if your filesystem gets to the 99% full point where it needs it then you've got bigger problems. No filesystems deal well with being nearly full.

Hi all,
Does anybody know or guide me on how to remove the first N bytes and the last N bytes from a binary file? Is there any AWK or SED or any command that I can use to achieve this?

Hi,
If I want to copy a 1024 byte data stream in to the target location in 3-bytes chunk, I guess I can use the following script.
dd bs=1024 count=3 if=/src of=/dest
But, I would like to know, how to do it via a C program. I have tried this with memcpy(), that did not help. (3 Replies)

virtual-filesystems(7) Miscellaneous Information Manual virtual-filesystems(7)
NAME
virtual-filesystems - event signalling that virtual filesystems have been mounted
SYNOPSIS
virtual-filesystems [ENV]...
DESCRIPTION
The virtual-filesystems event is generated by the mountall(8) daemon after it has mounted all virtual filesystems listed in fstab(5).
mountall(8) emits this event as an informational signal, services and tasks started or stopped by this event will do so in parallel with
other activity.
This event is typically used by services that must be started in order to mount other filesystems. When this event occurs, common filesys-
tems such as /usr may not be mounted. For most normal services the filesystem(7) event is sufficient.
EXAMPLE
A service that wishes to be running once virtual filesystems are mounted might use:
start on virtual-filesystems
