Ext2 is a standard Linux file system for hard disks.
|
|
|
|
This filesystem driver is deprecated because it does not properly
|
|
support inode time stamps beyond 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038.
|
|
|
|
Ext2 users are advised to use ext4 driver to access their filesystem.
|
|
The driver is fully compatible, supports filesystems without journal
|
|
or extents, and also supports larger time stamps if the filesystem
|
|
is created with at least 256 byte inodes.
|
|
|
|
This code is kept as a simple reference for filesystem developers.

Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by

the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page for details).

Posix Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and

Security labels support alternative access control models
|
|
implemented by security modules like SELinux. This option
|
|
enables an extended attribute handler for file security
|
|
labels in the ext2 filesystem.
|
|
|
|
If you are not using a security module that requires using
|
|
extended attributes for file security labels, say N.
