When I try to mount my new /dev/hda3 partition (which is type 83 and ext3 mkefs -j /dev/hda3 ) I get the strangest error when using the gentoo livecd 2005.0. I get: EXT2-fs warning (device hda3): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2. When I use the 2004.2 livecd and I type the same commands it does not complain. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from livecd 2005.0 2. Having a HDD with a ext3 partition would be handy 3. mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo Actual Results: You get the error EXT2-fs warning (device hda3): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2 Expected Results: Just mounted it as ext3 (like 2004.2 does)
You should use mount -t ext3 /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo as documented in the handbook: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=4#doc_chap5 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 77881 ***
