So let me see if I have this right.

You grab Alexandre's kit from http://www.bullopensource.org/ext4/20060926/
and a plain old `mke2fs -j' gives a filesystem which will mount as ext3 or
ext4.

If you then mount this filesystem with `-t ext4dev -o extents', it becomes
incompatible with the ext3 driver. Yes?

What else aren't we being told? ;)
