Have not Hi Johnathan, Creating a new initrd does indeed allow you to mount your root partition with writeback mode. You can create the initrd image manually but it turns out there's an easier way too. First you modify your /etc/fstab to change the root partition mount options to data=writeback. Then you can use the "mkinitrd" command to create an initrd image. mkinitrd will check /etc/fstab for the root partition mount options and properly configure the initrd image. All that remains after that is to ensure that grub (or other boot loader) is set to use the new initrd image.
