Since ext3 partitions can be mounted as ext2 partitions, you may be right. However if the root partition was defined ext3 in the fstab, there may be some problems. One thing I know, is that I could mount ext3 partitions without ramdisk support with compiled-in ext3 support on a self built (LFS) linux system (kernel 2.5.64). What do you need the ramdisk for? -- MP ---------------------------- Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://jdoom.uw.hu/ -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
