Or simply work with actual the processes instead relying on 'jobs' Why do you want to 'reattach' anyways?

I followed the relevant Howto on that, (after backing up of course) and only managed to produce an ext2 filesystem with an un-removable journal file its root. That is, the filesystem could not be mounted as ext3. Further, I was by no means the only one to experience that problem. Current wisdom at the time said to use the distro's setup utility (SuSE 7.3) as if you were building a new system, create the ext3 filesystem, stop the setup and restore you data to it. That worked and left no pesky .journal file hanging around. I haven't quite figured out what magic SuSE used, but I'd sure like to know. The same trick may work for other distros.

GNORPM Problem
I am running a RedHat 7.0 system. If I try to run gnorpm as root and do a Web find I get no entries in the list of packages and any attempt to search spits out an error XML-CRITICAL **: Document is empty. However, if I run this tool not as root I have the entire list of packages and everything works fine. It seems to me that there is some state information stored somewhere that got messed up for root but is fine for the regular user. However, I have been unable to find where that state information is kept or how to fix it. Any information would be appreciated.

Re: Converting from Fat32 to Ext3fs?
Pardon my ignorance, but isn't parted itself a partioning utility? If indeed, it can make ext3 partitions directly, than the tar/mkfs/untar advice (similar to the wrong Howto's) is also incorrect. A Google later: Please look at http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/. I get the impression than it cannot create a NEW ext3 filesystem, and the question remains open.

The blades are from their bought company - cobalt. They're doing all the work if I understood correctly from someone in Sun USA.. Impossible price of $1k? why not? Blade 100 costs $977 and I imagine that a 1U version of this as a blade should cost the same. After all, not many changes between them, and don't forget that it's a starting price.

Converting ext2 to ext3? tune2fs -j (Note I havn't tried this one, only mk). The only question I know of that is open is fat->ext[23].
