Re: Upgrading file systems

[Rebecca R Hepper seagate com]

Thanks for the tip.  From what I read, a %post section will be ignored
during an upgrade.  It seems like upgrading the file systems will have to
be a second step.  After an upgrade I could reboot, run a script to do what
you described below then reboot again.  Thanks  - I'll give it a shot!

You could  use tune2fs -j in the %post section.
