Curious, I replied, but did not recive a copy of my reply, maybe it got lost in the internet? :) Killed by a rogue lvm, I assume ;) - If this was/is only me missing my reply, then I am deeply sorry for spamming - not intentionally, really.

Hi there!
Big thanks for the very fast answer!! Much appreciated!
Just to be VERY sure, tune2fs -l says:
