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?
