Hi Peter,
Of course, as Norman suggested, it could be nothing to do with the
kernel and could, I suppose, be broken NFS code in FC2. I just mentioned
the Ext2/3 changes as it took me a LOT of searching bugzilla lists to
find out why my Partition Magic on Windows was refusing to play with the
new Ext3FS partitions (after previously being happy with them!)
Cheers,
Brian
