I'm running short of ideas. I thought it might really be an ext2
filesystem, but when I tried to create that here (RHL 7.3, 2.4.18 etc)
it produced a sensible outcome.
Still, what does "e2fsck -n /cd/cd2image" say?
You may need "-f" to force the check.
While checking the doc, I found this:
-j external-journal
Set the pathname where the external-journal for
this filesystem can be found.
which raises the question as to where the journal is.
