Just installed 10.1 Official....fsck.ext3 issues

Here is my setup: 7 partitions on one 40GB Harddrive

hda1: FC3

hda2: 10.1 Official

hda3: Unused

hda4: Extended

hda5: /home

hda6: /.../Music

hda7: /.../Pictures

 

Now the issue is that when I boot into 10.1 Official, the system attempts to mount hda5,6, and 7 as it should, however I receive this error message:

 

fsck.ext3: Filesystem has unsupported feature(s)

e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck!

 

First of all, I know very little about fsck.ext3 and e2fsck - they have just always worked.

 

Secondly, any easy fix? Usually clean installs of Mandrake are a breeze... :wall:

I think I may have found a solution...although I won't be able to test it until I get home. It appears that I need to remove the dir_index feature from the ext3 filesystems on these partitions by typing:

 

tune2fs -O ^dir_index /dev/hda5

 

I think the syntax of that command is correct. Here is the link to the article I found:
