SubjectRe: Collapse ext2 and 3 please
yeah.. Really. Here's what I do.

I have ext3 partitions, so I decided if they are different partitions,
then I can compile my kernel with ext2 as a module and ext3 builtin.
So I do it and reboot. Panic! Reason? Cannot find filesystem for the
root partition.
The error is in the kernel itself either way. Pick your reason.
1) ext3 is identified as ext2 on bootup.
2) There is no fallback to ext3 if ext2 is not found.

I'll check this again to be sure on a 2.6 kernel later today, but as far
as 2.4 is concerned my kernel panics.

Regards,
David

PS. Shut up with the cheap insults. I have empirical evidence supporting
my claim. Meaning there exists a bug somewhere.
