I'll try to get core dev's attention this week; it'd require a Feature Freeze Exception (FFE) now to get v1.44.0 into 18.04 but as an LTS it would be better to have it from the start - and decide on the default installer/mkfs flags now rather than have users suffer later.
>From that we could possibly release it to 16.04 xenial-backports. Not sure about 14.04 trusty though. The latest kernel for 14.04 is v4.4 (the GA 16.04 kernel). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1601997 Title: Ubuntu 16.10 installer sets metadata_csum option on ext4 partition which is incompatible with other LTS Ubuntu versions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/e2fsprogs/+bug/1601997/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
