Journalling doesn’t appear to be working on an ext3 file-system. When booting, the following line
appears:
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
What could be causing the problem?
A.
The kernel does not contain ext3 support.
B.
An old version of e2fsprogs is installed.
C.
The system was not shut down cleanly.
D.
The file-system is specified as ext2 in /etc/fstab.
Explanation:
Main cause the that your kernel is not supporting the ext3 filesystem. To support ext3 filesystem
kernel should load the ext3 module.
