Couple questions: Other file systems get synced (otherwise there would be more than 1 dirty block) but their clean flag doesn't get set (so they get checked on reboot, and checking takes too long). > 1) Has this been fixed in -current? If so, any tips on hacking it > into 2.2-960612-SNAP? No, it's still broken. Bruce
