Man, i really dont know how mount know wich type is... i know that it normally asks for a fs type when it cant
recognize the fs type. Are you sure that fstab points /dev/hda1 to /boot using ext3 ? Can you paste your fstab
here? Maybe some conflict?

Did you already tried to pass to mount the arguments ? Like mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /boot ! Try this, about the
fstab, it's right, but to know what is wrong with your systems i probably need more information. Maybe someone
in this list had this problem once and know the solution.

Good luck!

Thank you, manually specifying the filesystem type did work.  How does
mount know which fs type to try when it isn't specified?  I haven't
had this problem before and I never specify the type.

[gentoo-user] mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext2'

[Grant]

Hello, I'm trying to upgrade my server to the latest hardened-sources
kernel.  I'm trying to mount my /dev/hda1 partition to /boot but I'm
getting the error:

mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext2'

It's true that I don't have ext2 support compiled into my kernel, but
I never have.  My /etc/fstab looks like this:

/dev/hda1     /boot     ext3     noauto,noatime     1 2

Does anyone know what's going on here?
