The default file system for Red Hat Linux has changed from ext2 to ext3 for this release. The ext3 file system is what is referred to as a journaling file system. Journaling file systems are designed to recover quickly from system crashes. Quick recovery makes ext3 an important asset for computers that need to be up all the time.
The ext3 file system is really just an ext2 file system with the ability to recover faster after the system goes down. File systems can grow larger and larger with ext3, without accepting a penalty of long file system checks after a crash.
