I have just one related question: I have installed Debian 3.0 on
my notebook (it is ancient Compaq Presario 1200 but with 160MB
RAM, so it works like a charm) originally with 2.2 kernel and
thus with ext2 partitions. However, I have compiled now 2.4.18
myself and I am curious how to switch all my Linux disks into
ext3 (if possibly without destruction of data on current drive).
I have looked for anything resembling ext2toext3, but there
doesn't seem to be anything like that laying around. Should
I install some special package for that?

Thanks for any answer
