ext3 was introduced in Red Hat Linux 7 I think.  I've got a production
7.2 system here that's got ext3 mount points.  My 6.2 system doesn't.

That's not the same problem.  Your issue is trying to boot off of a
software raid volume and that's not the same as a plain old ext3 volume
at all.

Remember that ext3 volumes will mount as ext2.  You just won't have the
journal.  And yes, I have tested this.
