Hi, 1) I compiled the kernel with EXT3 support in the kernel itself. I downloaded the latest patch.I am using 2.4.13 2) downloaded the util-linux2.11f first installed it 3) downloaded e2fsprogs.. installed.. afte i rebooted my /dev/hda5 partition is not geting mounted properly ls -l shows it as a directory as 8 k and cd says not a directory also during bootup I get a swapon error saying that invalid -e option. booting from an older kernel does not give any such errors... What do i do to solve my problem... -Ritesh
