I was wondering if there are any problems with having both ext2 and ext3
filesystems running on the same machine.  I recently repartitioned a server
under RAID 5 to make extra space on a /usr paritition.  All went well and is
working properly as far as I can tell.  The partition was previously a ext3
but is now ext2 (since parted did not handle the creation of ext3).  I
suppose I could go ahead and create an ext3 outside of parted if there are
any problems with this config.

Also... After printing the partition table, I noticed that there is a Win95
Ext'd (LBA) parition?  Not exactly sure what this is!  When installing RH,
all disks were clean.  Could this be the array hardware?
