More Ext3

For anyone curious, ext3 stuff is working fine as far as I can tell. Except I’m still running the 0.0.2b code but 0.0.2c has just been released. Haven’t had the urge to upgrade/recompile yet.

I’m playing with ext3 on one of the machines. To quote the documentation:

Now, you want to make a journaled filesystem (recommended) or journal an existing one (for the exceptionally stupid/brave).

I journaled an existing filesystem. You be the judge. So far I’ve been trying to abuse it as best I can, but it’s really hard to tell when you sustain data loss with so much data on a partition.
