What's the Arch policy on the new default mount options for ext3? data=ordered (old, safe, slow behaviour) or data=writeback (new default, faster but riskier)
I read on http://lwn.net/Articles/328363/ that you can customize the default setting. Personally I'ld stick to ordered for at least until the new data=guarded arrives but maybe that's just me.
Dieter It is not set per default, the defaults you set in fstab are used. greetings tpowa
And if in fstab you set your options to be "defaults" ? then surely the kernel has predefined defaults per filesystem (which can be configured at kernel configuration time), including a "data mode" for ext filesystems, or am i missing something? Dieter

Also it should be noted that realatime is the default now, so users who didn't use relatime option should add norelatime now. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

Afaik relatime is pretty harmless though Dieter
