You can add ext3 to /etc/mkinitrd/modules, or change fstype to "ext3" in /etc/fstab. Then run "dpkg-reconfigure kernel-image-2.4.17-586tsc". All this will be easier if you use "auto" as fs type and WHEN Herbert Xu finally applies MY PATCH submitted a while ago. Gruss/Regards, Eduard. -- I think my Linux is more reliable than my harddrive.
