In linux-2.6.31, I have tested ext3 similarly for only one minutes. With "sleep 5" between remounts, I could see no messages from fsck. But without "sleep 5", ext3 reports EXT3-fs: ram0: couldn't remount RDWR because of unprocessed orphan inode list. Please umount/remount instead. and fsck says Deleted inode 53 has zero dtime. Fix? no Block bitmap differences: -615 Inode bitmap differences: -53 Directories count wrong for group #0 (47, counted=46). I don't know these messages are related to your problem, but I'd suggest you to try mounting your device as ext2 instead of ext3 (your don't need to re-run mkfs), and see what will happen. J. R.
