I have shamelessly -adapted the configure script from the one present in the e2fsprogs -distribution (thanks Ted!). - - Last, a few minor bugs have been fixed. - - This version is a test release. Use it only for testing :-) New -beta versions will probably be released before a stable dump 0.4 version is -available. - - If you encounter problems with this test release, please send a -detailled bug report (please look at the file KNOWNBUGS before sending a -bug report). - --- -Remy Card -card@Linux.EU.Org -
