Are you really sure about this?I ask because that is not at all how I experience it, for me it looks like the time of formatting, and not 'last altered', is used. I typically keep a loopy script update a .timestamp file regularly, and doing that alone does not work.Right, and of course.Turned out my problem was not FFS at all, it was really a partition with SFS/02, that didn't show up in OS3.9 - not FFS with long filenames. I had forgotten to add SFS/02 to RDB. This is my A3000 that multiboots between OS3.9, OS4.1 and Morphos 1.4. I am pondering on moving back to FFS as I keep getting random errors from SFS about not being able to read blocks (750GB ATA drive with ACard IDE-UW SCSI). It's sadly not so easy to find a filesystem that one can rely on for all the different "flavours". Also, I hope Amiga filesystems will improve so that they transparently can deal with bad-blocks, bit-flips etc, as all such errors become statistically impossible to avoid on large drives.
