2023-10-04 Thread Glenn Washburn
Over a decade later... but this might help someone. There is a way around this mess, with some caveats. You can set the block device to readonly using blockdev. This works as desired a lot of the time. However, sometimes (or perhaps everytime certain filesystems need to replay the journal), the

[Bug 1938104] Re: shiftfs module is not built because CONFIG_SHIFT_FS is not set
