When I change my fc8 machine's fstab to LABEL=/ / ext3 relatime 1 1 the machine won't boot - ext3 claims to not recognise the mount option. But putting "commit=100" in there works OK, as does running `mount -oremount,relatime' after it has booted. relatime is a vfs option, not a fs option, but should that matter? It'll be due to me running `/sbin/new-kernel-pkg --mkinitrd', which takes things out of /etc/fstab and stuffs them into initrd. I fell I'm missing something obvious here. Help?
