Boot

[Max Kiva]

No particular reason for ext3. It should be workable so I tried going with it.
Anyway redone it with ext2 and all works fine now. Will stick with the uboot I've got
Thanks

I would suggest a newer version of uboot.  I believe support for ext3
is something that was added later on.

Also, is there a reason you prefer ext3 over ext2?  If you don't feel
like messing with uboot, I believe an ext2 partition should work.
