Package: mount
Version: 2.12-10
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

  I intend to mount some partitions read-only, and check /dev/hdXX
md5sum periodically as a security check.

  However "mount -o ro" increments the ext3 mount count. I think
mounting a filesystem read-only should not change any byte on disk.

  Can you correct this? If this breaks some software, you could add
an option "-o rro", that means really-read-only.

  Thanks,
    Pedro

This would be a bug in the kernel ext3 driver, and I agree it should
be a bug, but upstream does not, so I'm closing this report.
