Hi, I have created ext3 filesystems on my RH 7.2 boxes. But it is very strange that the root filesystem can't be mountet as ext3. So I have no journaling for this filesystem.
Other filesystem are mounted as ext3 as expected. The following informations should help to understand my problem. [root@linux log]# df -kl Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 72777176 902048 71135740 2% / none 256752 0 256752 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda3 2071416 32828 2017544 2% /tst [root@linux log]# cat /etc/fstab LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 LABEL=/tst /tst ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0 [root@linux log]# dmesg --> Journalled Block Device driver loaded kjournald starting.

But /dev/hda1 (/) has no needs_recovery feature and the filesystem state is always not clean. Do you have any suggestions why RH does'nt handle the root filesystem as ext3? Thank you in advance!
