Indeed, the ext4 image is a symlink to the ext2 image, and the ext2 image is in fact an ext4 image: -rw-r--r-- 1 thomas thomas 3763200 sept. 11 21:54 rootfs.ext2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 thomas thomas 11 sept. 11 21:54 rootfs.ext4 -> rootfs.ext2 So, using the .ext4 image is probably a good idea, but the commit log should reflect that.
