Aufs doesn't react the remouting ext3. The script remounts aufs as if it were ext3 (and failed). Your /proc/mounts contains both of these lines? /dev/sda11 /tmp/jailcache.ro.var ext3 rw,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=0,data=ordered 0 0 varonaufs /tmp/jail/var aufs rw,relatime,si=89f694af8e016535 0 0 And the script runs # mount -o remount,brabra /tmp/jailcache.ro.var # mount -o remount,brabra /tmp/jail/var doesn't it? In the chrooted environment, both are aufs, right? > In my opinion, the kernel message isn't caused by the script journal- > commit. Again, the script does what it shall.

If such feature is implemented, it will be anoter script. But you may want to try the aufs module parameter 'brs'. Try setting it to 0. J. R.
