I've changed the bootscripts to skip this double step, with the unintended effect of not getting all options applied. (Fixed now.) Maybe you did too? Benno -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I've changed the bootscripts to skip this double step, with the unintended effect of not getting all options applied. (Fixed now.) Maybe you did too? I didn't modified the init scripts. But now I looked what is starting at boot and found out that / is remounted also during quotacheck - and this is the one that causes the problem. I've booted into single user mode and / was mounted correctly. Then ran quotacheck and after that it was mounted without noatime. So it is probably quotacheck bug. For now I added 'mount -o remount /' command to /etc/local.start as a workaround. Thank you all for your replies.
