Ah, ok. I usually do that with excludes. But if you have few filesystems, then using -x makes more sense, I agree. > And I assume the 'pass' field should be set to 0?

The only trouble I've really ever had was with 2.4.6 + XFS CVS; I got minor corruption after a kernel panic. But 2.4.8-pre3 + XFS CVS has only dropped me into xmon once (likely not XFS related), and I've encountered no problems with corruption or anything else. > PS: Hey Colin, I remembered to remove you from the To: header. ;) Hehe. Well, you should be able to set up your mailer to do this automatically for mailing lists...
