Re: ext3

[Ian Timshel <itschaotic yahoo ca>]

HI little.

	The difference as I understand it is that the ext3 is a journaling 
file system.  It keeps a record of the state of the drive to help 
recovery more accurate.  Again, as I understand it, both the ext2 and 
ext3 would be termed "linux native".

	I have seen it recommended more than once on this list to install ext2 
then once you are up and running do a conversion.  This is what I did 
during an upgrade and it worked flawlessly.  

Cheers!  Ian.
