We just finished installing LabVIEW 7.1 on Fedora 2 and 3 and came across an interesting issue that would allow us to install LabVIEW but not run it (the splash window would open, then pause, freeze and close).
Turns out that Fedora 2+ uses a filesystem convention that doesn't have "." and ".." as the first two directories. Apparently LabVIEW depends on this. To get LabVIEW to run on Fedora 2+ log in as "root" and execute the following code in your shell for all EXT3 partitions: CODE tune2fs -O ^dir_index /dev/(yourPartition) I'm running Fedora 2 installed on a USB hard drive with (2) EXT3 formatted partitions, so mine was: CODE tune2fs -O ^dir_index /dev/sda1 tune2fs -O ^dir_index /dev/sda2 You should be able to immediately run LabVIEW afterwards.

Hello,
I am using fedora 7 and labview 7 and when i type the tune2fs command on the console it says command not found.The strange thing is that i found the manual for that command. Can you think any reason why is this happening. Many thanks in advance.

Try executing "/sbin/tune2fs" instead. (and as osvaldo mentioned, you'll need to be root)

Many thanks for your reply,
Ive tried doing that and i recieved this message: [root@ip-81-23-61-82 christos]# /sbin/tune2fs -O ^dir_index /dev/sda3 tune2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006) /sbin/tune2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda3 Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock. But it was succesfull for the swap partition. Any ideas? Regards
