Linux: Getting information about an EXT3 filesystem

You know, I’m not getting any younger. It’s getting harder remembering every damn command … so here is how you get information out of your EXT3 filesystem:

sles10sp2 ~ [0] &gt; tune2fs -l /dev/sda2 | grep &quot;^Filesystem&quot;
Filesystem volume name:   &lt;none&gt;
Filesystem UUID:          8eec8235-4d9e-4b58-acf9-3c68c977d5ea
Filesystem magic number:  0xEF53
Filesystem revision #:    1 (dynamic)
Filesystem features:      has_journal resize_inode filetype 
                          needs_recovery sparse_super large_file
Filesystem state:         clean
Filesystem OS type:       Linux
Filesystem created:       Tue May 27 10:48:56 2008
