Nope, doesn't change a thing, as you can see at :

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/mkinitrd2.tar.gz

And furthermore, i had both ext2 and via82cxxx loaded at that time :

$ lsmod 
ext2                   65444  1
via82cxxx              16732  1

Ah, normal, i don't have an ext2 filesystem anymore, but then, neither
do i have an xfs one, and those modules are included.

Nope, not even changing / to be ext2 in my /etc/fstab changed anything.
