ok, Joseph
 The following steps describe this procedure in detail.
    1. mount and touch some files
    2. these transactions are committed to journal area but not checkpointed
    3. emergency restart
    4. mount again and its journals are replayed
    5. journal super block's first s_start is 1, but its s_seq is not
updated
    6. touch a new file and its trans is committed but not checkpointed
    7. emergency restart again
    8. mount and journal is dirty, but trans committed in 6 will not be
    replayed.

It will be added later.
thanks.
