HD Install :: New hdinstall mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2



I've just created a new hdinstall using an ext3 filesystem.
However, when I reboot I get the following message:

EXT2-fs warning (device ide0(3,1)): ext2_read_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2

Now in my /etc/fstab i have /dev/hda1 marked as ext3, and If
I do a tune2fs -j /dev/hda1 it indicates that a journal already exists.  

Any thoughts, I really want to boot from an ext3 filesystem.

thanks,
mark

DSL does not support journalling ext2 (ext3), so it mounts it as a regular ext2 partition.  

It would probably be a good idea to fsck it once in a while....i started having trouble with mine after using DSL on it for several months without a check.

While ext3 may not be used as a journaling filesystem, DSL does support reiserfs which is a fully journaled filesystem.

Unfortunately, it is difficult to get DSL to boot from a reiserfs partition.

A 2 partition setup where 1st partition is ext2 and contains a DSL frugal installatin and the 2nd partition is reiserfs and contains user data should work, though.
