Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.41.12-4stable1 Severity: normal File: /sbin/fsck.ext2
Hi, It can be a bug or not, or a wishlist, but this issue is pretty important since it is dangerous. Please if you do fsck.ext2 /dev/X of a ext3 instead of ext2. /dev/sdb1: UUID="XXX" TYPE="ext3" SEC_TYPE="ext2" root@debian07:~# date It might be checked or mentioned that the dev is not correct. You could add me a switch that might be useful for me and others. We all get old, and can be sometimes making mistake. You'll see in some years if you do not yet ;) Like an option --protect or --userinput, to prompt a read / inputchar y/n that we are sure of given op. An addional option might be the wisest one, + also since fsck is locked, linux must evolve (as sh locked from changes and large improvements).
