Looking at /etc/mke2fs.conf, I see
[defaults]
       base_features =
sparse_super,filetype,resize_inode,dir_index,ext_attr
       default_mntopts = acl,user_xattr


And it looks like the ext4 fs created by d-i indeed has this default
mount options set (i.e. they don't need to be listed in fstab).


Is there something missing?
