make sure /etc/fstab mentions ext3 and not ext2. run $ lilo if you use lilo. otherwise use the grub thing I mentioned.

I downloaded the new mk_initrd listed on the SuSE web site, support database but still not able to covert / and /boot to ext3. What did I miss?
$ tune2fs -j /dev/hda6 tune2fs 1.24a (02-Sep-2001) Creating journal inode: tune2fs: Permission denied while trying to create journal file
However both show a .journal file

I added the jbd ext3 rtl8139 modules, ran mk_initrd again but didn't fix problem
$ cat /etc/rc.config | grep INITRD_MODULES INITRD_MODULES="g_NCR5380 tulip usbcore jbd ext3 rtl8139"
once again thanks
