Name
EXT2_FS — Second extended filesystem support
ext2
is a standard Linux file
system for hard disks. Most systems use the upgrade, ext3
, instead.
Note
Note that the file system of your root partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot be compiled as a module without using a special boot process, so building it as a module could be dangerous.
