This may happen if you are doing lots of testing. The interface to the online resize is done via "mount -o remount,resize=<new_size> /device" so each time you do a resize it counts as an extra mount. At one time I thought I should fix this, so that you don't get filesystem checks more often, but online resizing is a bit dangerous in the end, so if you do lots of resizing it probably isn't a bad idea to do extra checks on the filesystem. > I have seen other messages on a few previous boots with a patched > kernel, that I unfortunately can not reproduce, where there are > complaints about an option 'resize' that is not understood. This would indicate that the filesystem you are trying to resize does not have the kernel patch applied.
