Hello All,
Just want to check that I did this correctly.
I converted a partition that was in Ext2 to Ext3 by going into the Mandrake Control Center, Using DiskDrake to unmount the partion, then change the type to Ext3, and then exited. I didn't format the partition after the change and I forgot to remount it.
I did check the fstab file to make certain it was Ext3, and then rebooted.
After the reboot, the mtab file shows the partition as Ext3.
Just making sure that I didn't need to format the Ext3 partition. I rather doubt that I do because that partition was my Linux From Scratch partition and I'm booted into it right now. Everything seems okay, but I'm concerned about my first crash and if the Ext3 recovery programs will work properly.
Am I okay.... er, let me rephrase that... is my Ext3 partition okay?
