Yes, it is. Moreover, it is due to the ext3 legacy code that you are |
21 |
getting the EXT3 error (the first one) in /var/log/messages. |
22 |
Even if you remove ext3 legacy support from kernel, the ext2 and ext3 |
23 |
filesystems will be handled by the "new" ext4 code. |
24 |
As for the EXT4-fs message, probably it tries to mount the fs as ext2 |
25 |
first but it is not quite consistent for different fs, I'm getting it on |
26 |
some but not getting on others. |
