Thanks for your inputs everyone. Here is what I plan to do:

I've decided to build/compile the new kernel and install 
rather than trying to patch the packaged RH-7.2 kernel. 

1. I have installed the complete kernel 2.4.17 source from 
   kernel.org

2. I am using e2fsprogs-1.25-1.i386.rpm from the rawhide site
 (as the README in kernel documentation asks for this version)

3. Assuming that the Ext3 is not a problem I will do the usual
   make, make xconfig, make depimage etc.. and install the new
   kernel alongside the existing one.

Lets hope it works. In case anyone knows otherwise I would like
to know before I find it the harder way.

Regards


Bhasker
