Convert filesystem from reiserfs to ext2
Hi,
My current linux server's filesystems is reiserfs. Unfortunately I need to enable quota for my users and as far as I know quota won't run on reiserfs.
So, can I convert the filesystem types to ext2 from reiserfs without having to re-install my o/s?
Or, is there any quota applications I can install that will run on reiserfs?
Thanks in advance.
