Sure it can. On one computer I have, I'm running 2.4.17-686 from
testing. Both ext2 and ext3 are modules and everything works fine.
Ah! Hold on one second. I installed 2.4.17-386 on the new
installations, and it seems that on 2.4.17-386, only ext3 is a
module, not ext2, whereas with 2.4.17-686, both ext2 and ext3 are
modules. Anybody know why this is?
Andrew.
