I used a virgin disk to = install it to thus leaving the old disks under linux alone. When I got the system updated and working, I wanted to re-mount some of = the older ext2fs partitions to get files off of them. I could mount all = of the old partitions except one -- of course it is the one I need. the = drive device name is: wd3s4. If I try a mount command as : mount -t ext2fs /dev/wd3s4 /mnt I get a message which says:=20 Wrong Magic Number - C233 (expected ef53 for ext2fs) and the partition fails to boot. I already remade the kernel with ext2fs support and it will mount my = other parttiions which are also ext2fs no problem.
