[ANSWERED]kernel support for extended attributes
« on: December 08, 2013, 09:28:21 AM »
I just have a quick question. (I think.)

Is the 32bit kernel used in 5.x built with support for extended attributes on the ext* filesystems?

I took a look at http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/x86/release/src/kernel/config-3.8.10-tinycore
but I really can't tell. I'm having trouble setting custom attributes (setfattr: file.txt: Operation not supported) and I want to make sure it isn't the kernel before I go any farther.

Thanks,
lverns

The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

Thanks curaga, I'll look elsewhere for the source of my troubles.
