Hi, I have just started going through the new 6.2-pre1 book. I noticed that in section 2.3 "Creating a File System on the Partition" you are asked to create an ext3 filesystem.
Following this command is a note about unsupported features in some versions of E2fsprogs. Following the note you are asked to run a debugfs command to check if any features are on the filesystem that will later be unsupported in the E2fsprogs version installed in Chp9. When I ran this command I unsurprisingly got the has_journal feature which is not listed as one of the features that is expected in the output. I think that this note in the book should be updated to show that the has_journal output is expected, as it should be with an ext3 filesystem. I know its not a huge error but I think it would be fairly easy to fix and avoid some confusion amongst people unfamiliar with the features of ext3. I have looked forward to the next release of LFS since installing 6.1 a while ago, I will keep checking for any small bugs in the book as I go through but so far so good Good work all involved!
