Hm, is this reproducible? Which kernel, mount-options, arch? Here on 2.6.24/amd64 the "directory order" (GNU/ls -U resp. BSD/ls -f) seems to work as expected: $ touch 1 2 3 $ mv 2 t/ ; mv 3 t/; mv 1 t/ $ ls -Ugo --time-style=full-iso t/ -rw-r----- 1 0 2009-01-22 15:50:01.414115303 +0100 2 -rw-r----- 1 0 2009-01-22 15:50:01.414115303 +0100 3 -rw-r----- 1 0 2009-01-22 15:50:01.414115303 +0100 1 Christian. -- BOFH excuse #175: OS swapped to disk _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
