It is philosophical. It may be in the man pages somewhere, but even with ext3, they like to run full fscks every so often. On my desktop system, I have a couple of file systems I keep unmounted. I recently upgraded them to ext3, and at the same time change the mount and the intervals so that then will not need checking for about a year. On 2 Oct 2002 at 17:47, Thibaut Cousin wrote:
Out of curiosity, why does ext3 do that? That's exactly what ext2 does to "take care of itself" without journalizing... It shouldn't be necessary with ext3, should it?
