Ext3 not supported by kernel !!!!!

Ext3 not supported by kernel !!!!!

[Miguel Maria Godinho de Matos]

Hi again guys, i manage to compile the 2.4.14 kernel just fine, and did all 
the steps:

make  menuconfig
make dep
( didn't do make clean though )
make modules
make modules install
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vzmiluz-2.4.14
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.14.img

edited my lilo and updated it ( /sbin/lilo )

Then i rebooted and was expecting a happy ending though it not happened.
after loading the kernel, when linux was suppose to mount the modules, the 
file system and so, an error appeard!!

fs ext3 not supported by kernel

kernel panic...... bla bla bla

after that i reentered linux with my working kernel and did bzdisk just to 
check!

then i rebooted and linux booted because the kernel needn't be mounted as it 
is in the floppy and initrf.immg as well.

though when red hat came to mount the file system, instead of the beautifull 
[ ok ], a [ failed ] appeard, again with the error message:

fs ext3 not supported by kernel!

This was for what i  think something i misschoose in the make config step am 
i right??'

If so can one of u tell me which menu contains the ext3 support for the 
kernel compilation.

tks again, Astinus

ext3 is not supported by 2.4.14 -

However you have some options here.

- Get the ext3 kernel patches from Andrew Morton's site
- Update your kernel to 2.4.15-pre8, which has ext3 support
- Edit your fstab to mount the filesystems as type "auto" not ext3

ext3 is supported in 2.4.15-pre2 and up.

yes and no... basically vanilla 2.4.14 doesn't support ext3,
although you can patch it to get ext3.

either you want to try 2.4.15pre8 and you have to patch your 2.4.14
with
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/testing/patch-2.4.15-pre8.gz
or you can patch 2.4.14 with the ext3 patch at :
http://beta.redhat.com/index.cgi?action=ext3
or you can wait for 2.4.15

First: 2.4.14 doesn't have ext3 integrated. Ok, but the kernel should
fallback to ext2, it seems you didn't selected ext2...

    Wait til 2.4.15. Anyway, you can patch 2.4.14 to support ext3.
