The noatime flag looks like it's handled in the ext2fs kernel code, with
"atime" as the default. Do you get the same error when you try to pass "-o
noatime" on the command line? Perhaps the mount_ext2fs program just needs a
slight tweak to handle it.
I have already send a second mail to the topic but my mails arive with hours...days delay.
I've seen that the kernel seems to handle the option.
What I have tested is
# mount -o noatime /dev/sd0e /mnt
Which gives the error for an unsupported option.
Indeed it looks like just a change to mount_ext2fs(8) should fix it.
