Hi, I have been following the cooker development on and off for some years now, and have not had any problems with the root partition as ext3 until around half a year ago. The boot message displayed is:
EXT2-fs warning (device ide0(3,65)): ext2_read_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2 This happens with e.g. kernels 2.4.18,2.4.20 and 2.4.22. Also, with an initrd RAM disk no kernels boot at all, the boot halt with a kernel panic, so I have to use the noinitrd option. The master boot record is located on another physical disk (/dev/hda), and I'm using lilo as boot loader. Checking the state with tune2fs -l /deb/hdb1 after boot shows that the filesystem state is not clean. However, booting from a CD and mounting the root partition either as ext3 or ext2, all is OK, the filesystem state is OK. I did even remove all journal file information, checked the partition, created a new journal file (and even tried the features filetype, sparse_super), rechecked again, but same result as before :( What's going on here?
