But it's ok, really: Get e2fsprogs 1.40.5 from rawhide, boot up your rescue disk, and: [root]# debugfs -w /dev/<whatever> debugfs 1.40.5 (27-Jan-2008) debugfs: set_super_value s_flags 4 debugfs: quit and you'll be fine. I've also got this info at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraExt4; if anyone is having ext4 trouble please look there first. This is a safety check put in to make sure that ext3 never unexpectedly gets mounted with ext4dev (_development_) code.
