@maacruz: Thanks for asking. Installation of kernel version 3 is successfully completed with all accompanying files. Uname reports a 13 march kernel. The rootfs still gets mounted as ext2 though. Is there some additional magic I have to do for this partition to get recognized as ext3? Do I need to edit fstab? Code: /etc $ cat /etc/fstab rootfs / rootfs defaults,errors=remount-ro,noatime 0 0 /dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/mmc1 vfat rw,noauto,nodev,noexec,nosuid,utf8,uid=29999 0 0 So the filesystem errors are also still there. I regularly boot into flash and fsck them out. @Jimcz: I had input/output errors which had gone away after fsck my ext2 filesystem.
