That appears to be it. the /etc/filesystems didn't include ext4 at all, and has
ntfs-3g and ntfs listed. I added the ext4 after the ext3 line. Interestingly, the
/etc/filesystems on the fedora 12 machine doesn't have ext4 listed at all, but
the /proc/filesystems on the fedora 12 has the ext4 listed after the ext3 line,
but no ext2 line?
Does the order make a difference? Is there a better or best order?
Thanks.
Currently, creating a new build to test it out, but that should be the fix.
Always learning more stuff...
