running tune2fs -l /dev/hda1 learned me that the "Error behaviour" is set
to "Continue". So I have two (additional) questions:
- if I issue tune2fs -e remount-ro /dev/hda1 then reboot, would it make
what I expect ?
- how does this change happened ? Everything was perfectlt well behaved
two days ago ! Might it simply come from an unclean halt or is it a sign
of disk failure ?

also, I forgot a few details in my previous mail: my root partition is of
type ext2 and I'm running unstable with fsck 1.39...
