74	help
75	  This is the journaling version of the Second extended file system
76	  (often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system
77	  (method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks.
78
79	  The journaling code included in this driver means you do not have
80	  to run e2fsck (file system checker) on your file systems after a
81	  crash.  The journal keeps track of any changes that were being made
82	  at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system
83	  is consistent without the need for a lengthy check.
84
85	  Other than adding the journal to the file system, the on-disk format
86	  of ext3 is identical to ext2.  It is possible to freely switch
87	  between using the ext3 driver and the ext2 driver, as long as the
88	  file system has been cleanly unmounted, or e2fsck is run on the file
89	  system.
90
91	  To add a journal on an existing ext2 file system or change the
92	  behavior of ext3 file systems, you can use the tune2fs utility ("man
93	  tune2fs").  To modify attributes of files and directories on ext3
94	  file systems, use chattr ("man chattr").  You need to be using
95	  e2fsprogs version 1.20 or later in order to create ext3 journals
96	  (available at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/e2fsprogs/>).
97
98	  To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
