Yup, experienced this myself many times over. The reasons are understood (it's not limited to just the TRIM bits, it's related to anything adjusting the superblock -- it gets cached in memory in certain situations and not flushed back to disk). Hint: are you booting into single user and then issuing a "mount" command before doing your tunefs stuff? If so, this is probably what's causing it (at least it was in my case). Instead just boot into single-user, do not mount anything, and use /sbin/tunefs (if available -- depends on your filesystem setup) or /rescue/tunefs. -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@koitsu.org | | UNIX Systems Administrator http://jdc.koitsu.org/ | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
