Only the superuser or a process possessing the CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE capability can set or clear this attribute." Ok. That's what I was afraid of. If this isn't your root file system, you can clear the attributes with reiserfsck --clean-attributes <device>, and it will fix the problem. Unfortunately, this is hardly a solution, since this is a change that causes unexpected and unpredictable results on file systems in use. Andrew - Since the attr-bits-cleared bit can't be trusted, I don't think we'll ever be able to enable reiserfs inode attrs by default. I'll send a patch separately to back out this behavior. -Jeff -- Jeff Mahoney SuSE Labs
