Can an EXT3 filesystem be "converted" to EXT2, IOW, dispense with the journal?
Yes.
mke2fs -t ext4 -O ^has_journal /dev/device
at format time.
Actually, if you're formatting, surely "mkfs -t ext2" would be easier :-), but Felix did ask about _converting_ though. I googled "convert ext3 to ext2" and stumbled over this tune2fs -O ^has_journal <ext3-device>. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (6.0°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
