Maybe.  ext2fs is supposed to be ext3fs with journalling, and ext2fs can 
be mounted with mount_ext2fs.  I could swear I've done this with ext3fs 
partitions, but can't recall when or where.

A note to Mark: please don't combine multiple questions into one post 
like that.  It makes responses difficult and makes it harder for people 
searching the archives.  A single question per post, with a relevant 
Subject line, makes things easier for everyone--even you, because the 
responses will be easier to sort out.
