https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/migrating-from-ext2-to-ext3/m-p/2724740#M1628 I am concerned in regards to migrating / to ext3. Because I've compiled ext3 as a module, do I need to put this in initrd if I intend to migrate / to ext3? Also, what happens if I fall back on a previous kernel that does not have ext3 support? How would I recover from this? Thanks. Wed, 15 May 2002 15:36:10 GMT K.C.

Is this a good idea? If so when you do your force check manually, does the filesystem have to be unmounted? Thanks.
