Well, that really goes without saying: when you mount a filesystem, you're telling the OS: "use it as you see fit". Then you can't go and destroy that filesystem while it is in the OS's hands. > 2. if there is an entry in the file "/etc/fstab" for the > partition whose file system you have changed with mkfs, you > should edit that file to reflect the change of the partition's > file system before any re-boot. When closing parted, it always prints the message "Don't forget to update /etc/fstab, if necessary."; maybe your version didn't do that yet, but nowadays it does. IMO this is enough.
