iirc ext3 is (roughly put) ext2 + journalling, and thus ext3 partitions
should be accessible with an ext2 driver. the ext2 driver for os x does
currently *not* work properly with tiger though, as apple changed the
kernel interface[1]. consequently, in order to share a hd partition
between os x 10.4 and linux you currently have to use atavistic
atrocities like FAT <yuck!> instead or resort to networking. foreign
file system support is one of the things in osx that always sucked. and
apple seems inclined to keep it like that, unfortunately... :-(

best,

sascha
