Yeah, I had that same problem today on a new install I did.
The EXT2FS suport is not in the GENERIC kernel. You would want to make a new
kernel by copying the same config file as the GENERIC (or your last build) and
adding a line for:

options         "EXT2FS"

Then build it and reboot.
After I did that it mounted just great.

Good Luck,

John
