AFAIK the original stated intention of ext3 was
cd linux/fs
cp -a ext2 ext3
# hack on ext3
That leaves ext2 in ultra-stability,
no-patches-unless-absolutely-necessary mode.
IMHO prove a new feature, like directories in page cache, journaling,
etc. in ext3 first. Then ma

Summary: ext3 works, page_launder() doesn't :)
The tree is based on the porting work which Peter Braam did. It's
in cvs in Jeff Garzik's home on sourceforge. Info on CVS is at
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=3242 - the module name
is `ext3'. There's a README there which describes how to
