On a freebsd 5.3 box I am confronted with the ext2/ext3 issue as well, but it does not affect my root partition (ufs2). While this issue is affecting me only temporarely (I am waiting for a new RAID subsystem to migrate the data from ext3 to ufs2 and kiss Linux goodbye), I think it is an unacceptable issue in a production grade operating system. Thanks in advance to the knowledgeable person that will look into this and fix it. Yuv
