Hi all, I am testing new kernel on a mips machine (64 bits for kernel, 32 bits userland) and I found a problem when mounting the root file system. It is an ext3 file system that is correctly mounted as read only. While booting the system remount the file system as read/write and keep starting all daemons. Moving from 2.6.26 to 2.6.30 kernel, I get this error while remounting the file system read/write: EXT3-fs: cannot change data mode on remount My /etc/fstab contains this line: /dev/sda1 / ext3 rw,errors=continue,data=ordered,relatime 0 1 According to mount manuale page, "data=ordered" should be the default value and should be harmless. Removing option "data=ordered" fix the boot process. So, this is my question: is this a standard behaviour? is "data=ordered" no more a default value? What should people do when upgrading their system to newer kernels?
