Attached is a patch against the latest moblin-image-creator git tree to
change all partitions to be formatted as ext3 and mounted as such.
Thanks,
Michael

Yes, That is exactly what I did.
Right. What I was trying to say is that we now need to commit these
changes to the source repos on moblin. Do you have a patch of your
changes?

Rob,
Dave Mandala asked me to inform you of the following.
After some investigation, I found that changing Moblin Image Creator
to format all partitions as ext3 fixes the "disk corruption" issue.
It turns out that the partition that holds the squashfs image was
formated as ext2 not ext3 therefore making it prone to
corruption since
there is no journaling on ext2.
In that case we'll need to modify Moblin image-creator's install.sh
script and the platform initramfs to use the ext3 for all partitions
created on the target platform.
