Hi Rob, Do you know if the same is true with an ext3 filesystem?

No problem. The biggest problem is whether you can boot from it. With SuSE 7.0 that appeared to work, but with the new disk format introduced with the Linux-2.4 kernel (as is in SuSE 7.2 and RedHat) you lose your data when you try to run zipl against a RESERVED disk that has an ext2 file system on it.
