Hi all, I was wondering if it's safe to run tune2fs with the -c or -i option on a rw mounted filesystem. Should I remount read only first? My man page doesn't mention it. Thanks -- Lorenzo

My man page doesn't mention it.It is safe to use tune2fs on an rw-mounted filesystem; tune2fs is very careful about how it modifies the superblock in order to make it safe. - Ted
