That means: the filesystem... Not the block device... Sorry, it's kinda nitpicking. But actually, the file system IS read-only: You cannot modify files from user's view. What you actually want is not modifying the underlying storage which is the block device and includes stuff like meta and journal data (which is only indirectly visible to users at best). You can argue that man pages are not particularly end-user friendly. But for an admin this makes sense without being an fs developer. -- Regards, Kai Replies to list-only preferred. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
