[Solved] SU+J is automatically enabled on /?

stunirvana21 · #1 August 3rd, 2012, 15:10

I recently upgraded a few servers following the instructions from /usr/src/Makefile. Now / is always mounted with journaled soft updates. If I boot single user mode and alter it, it has no effect. However, I can alter the characteristics for other filesystems.

Here is what I do in single user mode while / is still read only.

Code:

tunefs -j disable -L root /dev/DISK

After I mount it, it immediately disregards what I did. If I check the disk again with tunefs -p, neither the disabling of the journaling nor the label are noted.

If I delete .sujournal while / is read write in single user mode, then remount / as read only before tweaking with tunefs(8), no progress is made either.

So does anyone have any advice? Is there a config file somewhere that makes / mount such a way that I missed when doing mergemaster? I checked /etc/fstab and that is exactly the same as before the upgrade.

After changing the filesystem settings, don't mount it or those changes will be wiped out. Reboot. Or maybe force a retasting with
# true > /dev/ada0p2

That works!

Thanks.
