This is a branch of the Ext2Fsd project by Matt Wu where I try to implement support for metadata
checksums and jbd2. I have also updated the project so it can be compiled with Visual Studio 2017
and Visual Studio 2019. This is work in progress. If you need a stable driver you should get the
latest official release from http://www.ext2fsd.com. If you want to try this branch you should
still install the oficial release and then copy this driver over the old in \windows\system32\drivers.
latest official release from http://www.ext2fsd.com.
The current status of the development is that all metadata checksums is implemented and jbd2 is
ported to support 64-bit blocknumbers.
The driver is now ready to be tested!

Test
----
To test this driver follow these steps:
1. Install the current version from http://ext2fsd.com also mirrored at http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse.
2. Copy the new driver over the old in \windows\system32\drivers. Precompiled drivers for 32-bit and
64-bit Windows is available at http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse.
3. Reboot.
To test this driver run one of the installation programs:
http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/ext2fsd/0.70/Ext2Fsd-0.70b1-setup-w10.exe for Windows 10.
http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/ext2fsd/0.70/Ext2Fsd-0.70b1-setup-xp.exe for Windows XP - Windows 8.1.
If you compile the driver yourself you only need to run the installation program once, then you can
copy your driver over the old in \windows\system32\drivers.
Now you can read and write ext4 filesystems using the new features metadata checksums and 64-bit
blocknumbers from Windows.
(sorry I can not sign drivers so you need to turn of Windows checking for that during testing.
