Hi
If you use the debian 20r1 CD1, when it brings up the first install
screen, press F3 (for more options!?, cant remember) then choose bf24,
it comes with ext3 support so all your partitions can be ext3 :)

Simply mounting it is the easy way and should be ok if your
filesystem has been correctly unmounted.

I feel strongly that this problem is recoverable, however you will have to
construct a manual partition table using the Linux Fdisk. With a lil bit of

Your fdisk doesn't show the last ext3 partition, therefore your partition

There may be other howtos, but this on eis what google told me when I
asked first...
http://www.namesys.com/faq.html#change-root
is there way in which i can convert my existing ext3 filesystem to
reiserfs?
is there a way to convert it back if i find reiserfs not suitable?

Hi,
I know only about problem-free conversion ext2-> ext3 (in fact it's only
addition of the journal), but I'm affraid that extX <-> reiserFS (or JFS, or
other) are to different, so it must be formatted, maybe on some site of
reiserfs they would have some tips.

I know that I can do this, but it would however be nicer to have ext3 also
in the stock

Are you sure about this? ext2 is also a module in the latest stock
kernels, have a closer look at the /boot/config.x.y! I was surprised by

Surely I'm not the only one that runs 2.4.17-686 with an ext3 root
