   Perhaps it’s worth a reminder of what Lars is trying to do: he has   
   discovered that the ext4 filesystem has the option for   
   case-insensitive operation. But this option has to be enabled at the   
   time a new volume is initialized, it cannot be added to an existing   
   volume. So he has to find some way of temporarily moving two terabytes   
   of data to somewhere else while he reinitializes his storage with this   
   new option.
