If that's true (and you should check with Linux
Ext3 is Ext2 + journal file. Let me quote the documentation: "ext3 filesystems may still be mounted by ext2 as long as they have been cleanly unmounted. ext2 will refuse to mount ext3 filesystems which have not been cleanly shut down, because there is live data still in the journal which ext2 does not know how to deal with." So you should have no trouble mounting ext3 partitions. -- Nimrod. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
