I think that I may have spotted a minor bug in the 2.6.23 kernel and its relationship with the EXT3 file system. I apologize in advance if I am mistaken, reporting a problem that is already known (I did not spot it in Bugzilla) or if I am reporting it to the wrong forum. I made the decision a just a few weeks ago to participate by running my system on the newest kernels and this is the first issue I have attempted to report.
And I know that you have stumble a few times before you get the hang of it. I note that on the 2.6.23-rc1, rc2 and rc2-git1 systems that when I boot I receive the following message each and every time: /dev/sda1: Superblock last write time is in the future. FIXED This message is repeated once for each hard drive I have (three traditional PATA and two of the newer SATA drives) After the message is issued the system seems to run great. This DOES NOT happen when I am coming up with a 2.6.22.1 kernel. A thumbnail of my configuration is: AMD-64 Dual Core 4600+ on a MSI motherboard 2 gig of memory 3 PATA hard disks in an integrated nVidia CK804 controller 2 SAS hard disks on an integrated nVidia CK804 controller 1 IDE DVD/CD driver 2 USB attached DVD/ CD burner nVidia GeForce 7600 PCI video card Thank you - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
