Hi Edward, thank you very much for the 2.6.31 patch ! Since using this patch I've observed kind of a strange behavior with mount-options: most of them don't work anymore ! fortunately noatime,nodiratime,dont_load_bitmap works unfortunately most of the others don't: [ 4995.449031] reiser4[mount(15761)]: parse_options (fs/reiser4/init_super.c:253)[nikita-2307]: [ 4995.449033] WARNING: Unrecognized option: "tree.cbk_cache.nr_slots=48" [ 5004.441723] reiser4: dm-2: found disk format 4.0.0.

I haven't given up hope that it will be included during one of the next merge-windows in Linus' tree Regards Mat -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
