If you didn't enable the synchronous UBD access (near to the UBD options in= =20 the kernel configuration), that's almost expected, as the help explains=20 (IIRC), for journaled filesystems (although some people claim ext3 does not= =20 need it, and this could be true, even because reiserfs works like ext3=20 "data=3Dwriteback" mode, which is less safe than the default ext3=20 "data=3Dordered"). In either case, give more info, so we know if this is a "no-bug" or if we=20 should investigate it. --=20 Paolo Giarrusso, aka Blaisorblade Linux registered user n. 292729 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
