ext4 fails on ext2 filesystems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I've an ext2 filesystem as root filesystem, because it's mounted readonly
for the most part. I've built in the support for ext[234] in the kernel.
Ext4 takes precedence over ext2 and it mounts the root filesystem:

[    6.184751] EXT4-fs: delayed allocation enabled
[    6.191487] EXT4-fs: mballoc enabled
[    6.197710] EXT4-fs: mounted filesystem hda3 without journal
[    6.203948] VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 3:3.

% mount | grep root
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
/dev/root on / type ext4 (ro,noatime,errors=remount-ro,barrier=1,data=writeback)

But when remounting the filesystem read/write and changing a file, the
changes are written to the filesystem, but it's remounted readonly
immediatly. I've set the mount option remount-ro.

[  203.082300] EXT4 FS on hda3, no journal
[  205.746713] EXT4-fs error (device hda3): ext4_free_data: circular indirect block detected, inode=165056, block=184476
