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.
