| I think your drive is marked "dirty". Please mount/umount it in Linux
| and try again.

| BTW: ext3 is compatible w/ext2 *ONLY* when the dirty bit is unset. When
| it is set, journal rollback is necessary which only ext3 can handle.
to check ext2/3 file system in FreeBSD, checkout the
port
/usr/ports/sysutils/fsck_ext2fs
It worked for me.
