Re: document ext3 requirements

2009/1/3 Martin MOKREJŠ <mmokrejs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
Hmm, so if my dual-boot machine does not shutdown correctly and I boot
accidentally in M$ Win where I use ext2 IFS driver and modify some
stuff on the ext3 drive, after a while reboot to linux and the journal
get re-played ... Mmm ...

You *really* wouldn't want to be doing that.

The other scenario that people have reported trouble with is
suspending the system, booting a live CD which "read-only" mounts the
filesystem (and replays the journal), then resuming.

Cheers,
Duane.
