Thanks! I wasn't aware of that. However, it looks like it's not ext2, in
fact, none of them are:

	/dev/sd0a on / type 4.2 (rw)
	/dev/sd0g on /usr type 4.2 (rw)
	/dev/sd0d on /var type 4.2 (rw)
	/dev/sd0h on /local type 4.2 (rw)
	/dev/sd1c on /local2 type 4.2 (rw)

I'm only familiar with installing Linux on an intel box, so I appreciate
your patience with me here, but don't all these need to be ext2 to run
linux swap and linux native filesystems on them?
