I have two machines with ext4 filesystem and surprisingly only on one of them I encounter the error?  The other one has worked without hiccups and complaints :)

[root at riohigh2 ~]# cat /etc/mtab
/dev/sda6 / ext4 rw 0 0
/proc /proc proc rw 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/sda5 /boot ext3 rw 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0
sunrpc /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs rpc_pipefs rw 0 0
gvfs-fuse-daemon /home/olivares/.gvfs fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon rw,nosuid,nodev,user=olivares 0 0

To the third machine I wanted to run ext4, but hardrive started to make funny noises, I left it like it was and I installed from LiveCD Fedora 10 Preview and it is working(crosses fingers) but with ext3 which is default.
