But you didn't 'tune2fs -i0 -c0 /foo', did you?
I don't know how this oot stuff exactly works, but you should reset the
-c max-mount-counts
-i interval-between-checks[d|m|w]
to make it truly 'we do it with journal' device.
Propably you just hit the 'interval-between-cheks' flag on boot and it
started to process as it should start.
When one does that tune2fs -j for live system, i do believe that it's
making some temp journal node, which is later on (next mount or so)
converted to true journal or something. So it might have been 'in
progress of migration' still .......
But the point being that one should use this
tune2fs -i0 -c0
mantra even for making new ext3 fs. That how the installer does it too.
