DUMPE2FS(8)							   DUMPE2FS(8)

NAME
       dumpe2fs - dump ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem information

SYNOPSIS
       dumpe2fs [ -bfhixV ] [ -o superblock=superblock ] [ -o blocksize=block‐
       size ] device

DESCRIPTION
       dumpe2fs prints the super block and blocks group	 information  for  the
       filesystem present on device.

       Note:  When used with a mounted filesystem, the printed information may
       be old or inconsistent.

OPTIONS
       -b     print the blocks which are reserved as bad in the filesystem.

       -o superblock=superblock
	      use the block superblock when examining  the  filesystem.	  This
	      option  is  not usually needed except by a filesystem wizard who
	      is examining the remains of a very badly corrupted filesystem.

       -o blocksize=blocksize
	      use blocks of blocksize bytes  when  examining  the  filesystem.
	      This  option is not usually needed except by a filesystem wizard
	      who is examining the remains of a very badly corrupted  filesys‐
	      tem.

       -f     force  dumpe2fs  to display a filesystem even though it may have
	      some filesystem feature flags which dumpe2fs may not  understand
	      (and which can cause some of dumpe2fs's display to be suspect).

       -h     only display the superblock information and not any of the block
	      group descriptor detail information.

       -i     display the filesystem  data  from  an  image  file  created  by
	      e2image, using device as the pathname to the image file.

       -x     print  the detailed group information block numbers in hexadeci‐
	      mal format

       -V     print the version number of dumpe2fs and exit.

BUGS
       You need to know the physical filesystem structure  to  understand  the
       output.
