mount boot unknown filesystem type 'ext2'

Problem :


When I execute : mount /boot/, I have the following :
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext2'

In my /etc/fstab, I have  :
 /dev/sda1               /boot           ext2            defaults        1 2


Solution :


Add a journal to /dev/sda1 :

tune2fs -O has_journal /dev/sda1

Then modify ext2 en ext3 in /etc/fstab.

 /dev/sda1               /boot           ext3            defaults        1 2

So, now you can make a mount : mount /boot

I've found a post about installing Chrome on Ubuntu.I test it and it works ! So I put it here :


November 2nd, 2009
This post was written when Chrome was still not available for Linux. Chromium was the only option then. Now that Google Chrome is available, just go to Google's website and download the browser directly.
