Ext3 is an extension of the [Ext2] filesystem, currently adding journalling support.
To turn your [Ext2] file systems into Ext3 file systems run the command:
- tune2fs -j ''[[options]'' /dev/''partition''
+ tune2fs -j /dev/''partition''
+or
+ tune2fs -j -J
''[[options]'' /dev/''partition''
where the only journal option currently supported is __-J size=xMB__. See tune2fs(8) for min/max size.
Note that unlike most disk tool commands, you add the journal to a currently mounted partition.
