Subject: Add a norecovery option to ext3/4?
Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2007 02:05:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070409000556.GA13980@implementation> (raw)
Hi,
Distribution installers usually try to probe OSes for building a suited
grub menu. Unfortunately, mounting an ext3 partition, even in read-only
mode, does perform some operations on the filesystem (log recovery).
This is not a good idea since it may silently garbage data. XFS has a
norecovery option that allows to disable that, I'd say ext3/4 should
have it too.
Samuel
