Hi!
After testing this new patch on 2.4.10 I have detected a problem when trying to convert mounted partitions to ext3.
The problem is that on umounting the partition, with 2.4.10 kernel, the has_journal feature mark is removed, so the device is not detected as having journal on next mount.
Creating journals (converting to ext3) on partitions that are not mounted works ok.
Following is a practical demonstration of this in case I didn't explain myself well...
pul:/# grep var /etc/fstab /dev/hda7 /var auto rw 0 2 pul:/# mount|grep var /dev/hda7 on /var type ext2 (rw) pul:~# tune2fs -l /dev/hda7|grep -i journal pul:~# ls -l /var/.journal ls: /var/.journal: No such file or directory pul:~# tune2fs -j /dev/hda7 tune2fs 1.24a (02-Sep-2001) Creating journal inode: done This filesystem will be automatically checked every 20 mounts or 180 days, whichever comes first. Use tune2fs -c or -i to override. pul:~# tune2fs -l /dev/hda7|grep -i journal Filesystem features: has_journal filetype sparse_super Journal UUID: <none> Journal inode: 12 Journal device: 0x0000 pul:~# ls -l /var/.journal -rw------- 1 root root 8388608 sep 24 13:39 /var/.journal pul:/# umount /var pul:/# tune2fs -l /dev/hda7|grep -i journal pul:/# mount /var pul:/# mount|grep var /dev/hda7 on /var type ext2 (rw) pul:/# ls -l /var/.journal -rw------- 1 root root 8388608 Sep 24 13:39 /var/.journal
