- <para>The e2fsprogs package contains the badblocks, chattr, debugfs,
- dumpe2fs, e2fsck, e2label, fsck, fsck.ext2, lsattr, mke2fs,
- mkfs.ext2, mklost+found, tune2fs and uuidgen programs.</para>

- <sect2><title>Description</title>
- <sect3><title>badblocks</title>
- <para>badblocks is used to search for bad blocks on a device (usually a disk
- partition).</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>chattr</title>
- <para>chattr changes the file attributes on a Linux second extended file
- system. </para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>debugfs</title>
- <para>The debugfs program is a file system debugger. It can be used to examine
- and change the state of an ext2 file system.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>dumpe2fs</title>
- <para>dumpe2fs prints the super block and blocks group information for the
- filesystem present on a specified device.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>e2fsck and fsck.ext2</title>
- <para>e2fsck is used to check a Linux second extended file system. fsck.ext2
- does the same as e2fsck.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>e2label</title>
- <para>e2label will display or change the filesystem label on the ext2
- filesystem located on the specified device.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>fsck</title>
- <para>fsck is used to check and optionally repair a Linux
- file system.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>lsattr</title>
- <para>lsattr lists the file attributes on a second extended
- file system.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>mke2fs and mkfs.ext2</title>
- <para>mke2fs is used to create a Linux second extended file system on a device
- (usually a disk partition). mkfs.ext2 does the same as mke2fs.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>mklost+found</title>
- <para>mklost+found is used to create a lost+found directory in the current
- working directory on a Linux second extended file system. mklost+found
- pre-allocates disk blocks to the directory to make it
- usable by e2fsck.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>tune2fs</title>
- <para>tune2fs adjusts tunable filesystem parameters on a Linux second extended
- filesystem.</para></sect3>
- <sect3><title>uuidgen</title>
- <para>The uuidgen program creates a new universally unique identifier (UUID)
- using the libuuid library. The new UUID can reasonably be considered unique
- among all UUIDs created on the local system, and among UUIDs created on other
- systems in the past and in the future.</para></sect3>
