No it is not. ext4 is ext4 only. You can convert ext2 and ext3 to ext4
but you can never go back. Ext2 and ext3 are compatible and you can go
back and forth and you

Well no Linux doesn't care. The boot loader might. U-boot probably
doesn't read ext4 yet.

Thanks Gandalf, aha - hence the "ext2load" bit in the boot params. The
installer happily let me create ext4 for /boot - I wonder if it should
restrict this to ext2. It would be prudent for Martin to mention this
on his install page.
Anyhow, I put the SD card

it is the version that's installed

Hello all
When installing [1] Squeeze to an SD Card on a eSata SheevaPlug, the
installer hangs at 83% done with it saying "Configuring
linux-image-2.6.32-5-kirkwood".
Looking at the SD card I notice that the /boot partition has a zero
length file called "initrd.img-2.6.32-5-kirkwood.new", so I'm
