SubjectRe: mke2fs - Cant get free page
   From: "Dr. Werner Fink" <werner@suse.de>

Stupid question: Do you have add swap space before running mke2fs?
I've never seen such a massage with 2.0.29 or pre-2.0.31-2 and
more than 4Mb RAM.

Hi,

I have seen Couldn't get a free page under 2.0.29
with a _defect_ SCSI disk connected to an NCR.
mke2fs slowed down to a hlt and the kernel gave lots of
free page complaints, but no SCSI message.

I have tested the (new :-( ) harddisk in 2 other machines
afterwards and got SCSI Error.

Ciao
Dietmar
