           Summary: ext3 data=ordered in fstab prevents booting
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.30.4
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: ext3
        AssignedTo: fs_ext3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: rogerx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        Regression: No


I ran into a problem when, when setting CONFIG_EXT3_DEFAULTS_TO_ORDERED=n, the
system will not complete booting when data=ordered is set on the root
filesystem within /etc/fstab.

(Can't remember the exact debug output as I've been muddling over possible
e100.c system freezes.)


Some work quick hacks that may help resolve are, fsck the filesystem and
removing the filesystem option from the /etc/fstab file.


This will likely occur with people upgrading from 2.6.29 to 2.6.30 with the
data=ordered filesystem option set in fstab.

(I personally like a more stable filesystem, so I've set
CONFIG_EXT3_DEFAULTS_TO_ORDERED=y due a more severe bug I was tracking down in
2.6.30 concerning e100.c)
