Filesystems
Ooops!
Oh no! I meant to make the filesystem ext3, but I forgot the -j option. What can I do?
In order to convert an ext2 partition into an ext3 partition, use the tune2fs command.
Make sure you change the filesystem type in /etc/fstab
Unmount the filesystem to be changed.
Use tune2fs to convert the filesystem:
tune2fs -j partition
tune2fs -j /dev/hda6
Mount the filesystem
