As I understand things (ie, not well), "ext3" is just software that
does things differently than "ext2" and the disk structures, etc,
are still "ext2".  I'd expect there to be some different info in
those structures or something, but I do seem to recall reading that
the partitions can be handled the same.  By all means investigate
further, but I didn't want you to just give up all hope too soon.
