no, what I said is that it was ext3 but I moved the partition with a program called ghost which basically image the drive into a file because I needed to change h.d. now, when I booted into Linux the first time after writing the image to the new disk, it said something is not right with the journaling and that it will now be disabled. Ok, so I said maybe something happened to the journaling file because I don't really know what is going on there. so I did tune2fs -j and it recreated the journaling file. the question is now, how do I know it is working. what do I need to do in order to verify that the journaling is doing its job? when I do: df -T it gives me ext3, but I am not sure that this indicate that the journaling is in order and functioning. so..., how can I check it?
