Okay, and reading the help for CONFIG_EXT3_FS, I see that it says it can't. So my next question is, why does it work on 2.4.17-686? Are there both modules and compiled in ext3 drivers? The config file that came with it (in the package kernel-headers-2.4.17-686) has: CONFIG_EXT3_FS=m and later, CONFIG_EXT2_FS=m So now I'm a bit puzzled... Andrew.
