With Andreas's e2fsprogs I > couldn't boot 4.9.0-rc1 What version of e2fsprogs is (the other) Andreas' tree based on? The newer e2fsprogs-1.43 has support for metadata checksums, but this should be off by default in the released version. The testing version had it enabled by default. With the working e2fsprogs, you could run: dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdb1 | grep -i feature and see what features are enabled (in particular metadata_csum, and maybe if the RichACL has its own feature flag)? Cheers, Andreas
