Mmm.. I reformatted the reiserfs on the test system to xfs.
Nope, it didn't quite do it. With options 'defaults,acl' mount still
gives arror
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog
...and in syslog:
..... kernel: XFS: unknown mount option [acl].
And for the record, when trying with ext2/ext3/reiserfs, the syslog also
complains:
..... kernel: reiserfs_getopt: unknown option "acl".
..... kernel: EXT2-fs: Unrecognized mount option acl
..... kernel: EXT3-fs: Unrecognized mount option acl
I hope this helps a bit more.
