It may add some load on the kernel, because the inode > number should be compared with that of the journal every time a file > is accessed, but it's just a suggestion ;)) AFAIK the .journal it's visible only when you convert an ext2 to an ext3 filesystem on a mounted partition, it was a problem with 2.4.10 kernel version, but i'm not sure if posterior releases also show this behavior. Anyway you can solve it recreating a new journal (remount it to ext2 before doing this): 'chattr -i /.journal;rm /.journal;tune2fs -j /dev/whatever' David Gómez "The question of whether computers can think is just like the question of whether submarines can swim." -- Edsger W.
