Hi folks,

I am using 2.4.26, and I thought I'd just download+recompile the
kernel as I always have to make a better 2.4.26 boot kernel.
So I did that using menuconfig, and I told it to include
support for Ext2. My boot partition is Ext2. When I booted
with the new kernel I got an error message saying the
partition was severely damaged and I needed to either
reboot immediately or I could log in as root. Well needless
to say when I switched back to my original this bizarre
problem went away. I also tried downloading the latest 2.6
and got the same problem.

Anybody know what's going on?

Thanks.
