ext3 as well
Not really. all drivers/apps for Windows only support ext3 because the difference is mostly the journal. AFAIK, no driver/app supports the ext3 journal, so in reality, they only support ext2.
That's correct, however ext3 is backwards compatible, so you can read write an ext3 partition(it feels like an ext2 one), however - if you perform write tasks, then it will have to rebuild the journal on next "real" use of ext3 (probably when you start Linux again).
Not quite... ext3 can use some attrributes and features that ext2 doesn't understand. An ext3 filesystem making use of those can not be mounted as ext2. AFAIK, it's not only the journal. But I don't remember where I read that. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
