#2 lore raw

i have nilfs2 as my root partition also. the only thing that works for me is to call nilfs_cleanerd explicitly as root with no device. so as root i just call "/sbin/nilfs_cleanerd" and it starts on the root partititon. i don't know why this is but it is the only thing that works on my gentoo amd64 system. i would like for it to start at boot but it does not. maybe this will change in the future. good luck.

Could you try the patch I attached yesterday in the following mail ?

https://www.nilfs.org/pipermail/users/2009-July/000782.html

nilfs_cleanerd refers to /proc/mounts to find or check existing mounts. How does the root partition look like in /proc/mounts ?
