Is sufficient to do a 'mkfs /dev/hda4' for generate a ext3 filesystem

Or I must use in some way tune2fs command?
Dario,
# mke2fs -j /dev/hda4
or
# mke2fs -j -L volume_label /dev/hda4
should do the job. See 'man mke2fs' for other options
--Doc
mkfs.ext3
I have do a mkfs .... it is the same things of mkfs.ext3 ... ?
If Yes, I must run mke2fs (or tune2fs) -j /dev/hda4 ?
tune2fs does NOT create (format) the filesystem. Use the man pages for
mkfs and see what options there are.
You have been given at least 2 commands to use (mke2fs and mkfs.ext3)
both listed above, that will do what you asked about.
To build an ext3 filesystem:
mke2fs -j /dev/hda4
Or
mke2fs /dev/hda4
tune2fs -j /dev/hda4
The man pages are your friends. "man mke2fs" and "man tune2fs".
