Probably would have had some feedback that way.              I'd say cancel MCC and start again with 'mke2fs' for each partition from       the command line. My usual is "mke2fs -ccjv -t ext4 /dev/sd??" but read       the man page first. You may want to use -m as mentioned in this thread.        Note -c is used twice for a read/write test. With -v, it will keep       you informed of its progress. Over 30 hours sounds quite within reason       for a ~1 TB partition.              Adam       --       Registered Linux User #536473              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
