Hi,
I want to do something *bad* : to mount an already mounted ext3 partition.
Use a clustering file system (i.e., ocfs2) instead.
This recovery is probably triggered by the file /.autofsck, but I have not found how to get rid of this feature. Is there a way to read an ext3 filesystem, completely disabling recovery and any write operation ?
Mounting in ext2 will ignore the journalling but not recommended. In any case you won't be able to mount a dirty ext3 filesystem as ext2.
