removing external journal
Hi,
I have a system with an ext4 filesystem with its journal on an other

needs_check is set. I can't run fsck because the journal is not
reachable. Is there any way to solve this? I understand I lost any
pending changes in the journal.
regards

Can you use debugfs to change the state of the fs so that it a...
