Hah, you're funny. e2fsprogs is not Red Hat Linux
Hi !
This command (mkfs -t ext3 etc...) works fine on my system (Red Hat 7.1 , e2fsprogs
1.28, kernel 2.5.6). Perhaps ext3fs support is not compiled in ur e2fsprogs.If u get
"filesystem not supported " then it is not compiled in ur kernel (that is less
probable coz most current distros 've ext3
Thanks for everybodies help. This fixed the problem. As was kindly
pointed out to me. The information I had was good for 7.3 not 7.2.
I tested this as well and it works, if the partition is already set-up for
ext2.
tune2fs -j /dev/hdb1
Thanks again to everybody.

Hi Irvine
I guess I should have found the command. The command I have learned to
use is mkfs. It does not have -j option. Then to compound the problem
the Red Hat web page says to do exactly what I thought as well: mkfs -t
ext3 /dev/hdb1 as well.

Read the man page for mke2fs. If you use the -j option it creates an
ext3 filesystem. I suppose the command c
I believe that you can create an ext2 partition, and then convert it to
ext3 using tune2fs. I have tried this a while ago, and I dont remember
havign any issues.
tune2fs -j /dev/hdb1
