you can convert an ext2 partition to an ext3 partition using a single command. These links from google provide more information. http://www.linuxcompatible.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=134 http://lugwash.washtenaw.cc.mi.us/linux-users/200111/0062.html So you can start with the standard woody kernel and get your network card running, after which you can download a new kernel with builtin support for your network card and ext3 and then convert your ext2 partitions to ext3. sridhar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
