Whilst I'm here... Is there a neat way to convert your root system from
3.5 to 3.6? I tried "mount -o remount,conv /" which gave no errors, but
didn't actually convert it. I also tried adding conv to the options in
/etc/fstab, but to similar effect... Do I have to copy to a different
partition with a 3.6 format and use that as my root to do it?
Cheers.
