If it is the root filesystem, reboot with "rootfstype=ext2" on the kernel command line and it will do what you want. Make sure it's a clean shutdown though - ext2 will not mount a needs-recovery ext3 filesystem. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
