 | 75 | 	  (often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system | 
 | 76 | 	  (method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks. | 
 | 77 |  | 
 | 78 | 	  The journaling code included in this driver means you do not have | 
 | 79 | 	  to run e2fsck (file system checker) on your file systems after a | 
 | 80 | 	  crash.  The journal keeps track of any changes that were being made | 
 | 81 | 	  at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system | 
 | 82 | 	  is consistent without the need for a lengthy check. | 
 | 83 |  | 
 | 84 | 	  Other than adding the journal to the file system, the on-disk format | 
 | 85 | 	  of ext3 is identical to ext2.  It is possible to freely switch | 
 | 86 | 	  between using the ext3 driver and the ext2 driver, as long as the | 
 | 87 | 	  file system has been cleanly unmounted, or e2fsck is run on the file | 
 | 88 | 	  system. | 
 | 89 |  | 
 | 90 | 	  To add a journal on an existing ext2 file system or change the | 
 | 91 | 	  behavior of ext3 file systems, you can use the tune2fs utility ("man | 
 | 92 | 	  tune2fs").  To modify attributes of files and directories on ext3 | 
 | 93 | 	  file systems, use chattr ("man chattr").  You need to be using |
