When I do a check disk... I get this:

Code: Select all

Job: Check file system on partition ‘/dev/sdd1’
Command: e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sdd1
e2fsck 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
/dev/sdd1 has unsupported feature(s): metadata_csum
e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck!

How do I get this... given that we're still on 16.04 repos?
Or are there other methods--using more updated versions--to check and format a drive?

See this. Specifically see the answer that describes what metadata_csum stands for.

Cheers.

Thanks...
Interestingly enough, that drive was formatted in my Xfce days with gparted
The getting a "newer e2fs message" came from kde partitionmanager
However after a reformat and a check disk--with kde--that message doesn't appear!
