Re: Defragment

Can you point us to reliable, maintained, free libre open source software (FLOSS) that performs defragmentation of the file systems you mention?

GParted is a graphical interface to the partitioning library and to file systems that are maintained by other projects.  We do not maintain the file system tools themselves.

Re: Defragment

Hello

Defrag (and other Tools) would be great. A library is for example this one: e2fsprogs
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/fs/ext2/e2fsprogs.git/about/

It contains e4defrag which is documented eg. in the Ubuntu manpages. Unfortunately, I can not add a 2nd URL, therefore you have to google :-(

Kind regards,
Thomas

Maybe I can send a 2nd link in an additional message:

Re: Defragment

Thank you Tom for the link to a defragmentation tool for the ext4 file system.
