Aha, thanks for the explanation. I was just playing around with resize2fs,

This is normal; the kernel simply tries to mount the filesystem using
ext3 first, so that the ext4 code only gets used for filesystems that
Ah, I see. When I disabled EXT3* in my .config, the kernel starts with
EXT4 and the "error" goes away...
Btw, ext4 feels pretty neat already, with vanilla kernel and userland
tools, no patches applied ...just like a *real* filesystem - great! :-)
