Also I'd be really clear on why you want to use ext3 over ext4. Ext4 has numerous advantages over ext3. This article "rm -r fs/ext3" is kinda interesting: https://lwn.net/Articles/651645/ Basically these days it's the ext4 kernel code with backward compatibility mounting an ext3 file system. And you're almost certainly best off just using the default mount options, again unless you have a specific requirement and understand the consequences of non-default options. The non-default options are just going to make your file system more non-deterministic in behavior compared to the upstream testing that happens which is heavily weighted on default mount options. --- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
