ReiserFS Help
Probably quite a simple answer, but here goes.
I'm trying to create quite a simple virtual disk image(using DD to create a temp file and then formatting it accordingly). I can't get mkreiserfs to do the format, but mke2fs does(see below for output of commands). Is there any way to force reiserfs to format my image?
J
# dd if=/dev/zero of=temp.img ibs=1k count=700000
# mkreiserfs temp.img
<-------------mkreiserfs, 2001------------->
reiserfsprogs 3.x.0j
mkreiserfs: temp.img is not a block special device.
# mke2fs temp.img
mke2fs 1.22, 22-Jun-2001 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
temp.img is not a block special device.
Proceed anyway? (y,n) y
