I mean, maintaining its inode number, of course ;)) Anyway, ext3 shouldn't (just an idea) show the journal as a normal file. It may add some load on the kernel, because the inode number should be compared with that of the journal every time a file is accessed, but it's just a suggestion ;)) And, BTW, ext3 works *really* great :)))) Ra?l - 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/
