That doesn't always work I gave the mount option in fstab to mount as ext3/ext2 (which resorts to ext2 if ext3 fails) and mount show ext3/ext2. Don't know if it would matter, but I'm scared to change that at the moment since its a mac G3 which I don't have a boot disk to so I would be left with a non-working server if I got it wrong ;-) > I'm not sure how to tell which mode an ext3 partition is using, though I think > running fsck may tell you. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
