My boot times became a bit too much so i decided to take a look ad kernel log to see what might be causing the problem..
There i noticed repeating:
12/17/11 02:25:28 PM EXT4-fs (sda6) re-mounted. Opts: data=writeback,errors=remount-ro,commit=60,commit=600
12/17/11 02:25:29 PM EXT4-fs (sda7) re-mounted. Opts: data=writeback,errors=remount-ro,commit=60,commit=600
12/17/11 02:25:29 PM EXT4-fs (sda2) re-mounted. Opts: data=writeback,errors=remount-ro,commit=60,commit=600
New messages of this kind continue to appear after the system is up and running, which is strange as i got all the filesystems mounted.
How to stop the remount attempts?
Some info.
My fstab:
#sda6
UUID=20fee089-ad39-4264-91f0-39aad7c84809 / ext4 defaults,data=writeback,errors=remount-ro,commit=60,noatime 0 1
#sda7
UUID=b58528df-37fd-46c8-8160-d7dc0efc78cd /home ext4 defaults,data=writeback,errors=remount-ro,commit=60,noatime 0 1
#sda2

I'm on kubuntu oneiric, Linux 3.1.4-030104-generic x86_64 kernel.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT:
ok i found out on ask ubuntu that it's because of going to and from battery power. Since my power socket is a bit loose, the switching happens all the time unless i have my laptop put on something stable like a desk.
So my new question is: How do i disable this funcionality? I don't care if the disk has to spin up more often.
