- Hi Martin, I don't seem to be able to reproduce this - does the following recipe fail for you on your machine? Maybe your kernels a bit out of date? (what version was that again?) /dev/sdb5 on /mnt/x

- The second case (xfs_db, above) is doing exactly that. It doesn't seem like that to me. No, it doesn't. Log replay only happens during mount. xfs_db would have the same problem, but doesn't... cheers
