EDIT: To clarify, we're running a 2.6.27 derived kernel. Ext4 "final" (FS binary representation i guess) was released in 2.6.28. It might not be a lot of work to backport (maybe somebody already has, dunno) ext4 to 2.6.27, but OTOH we're moving to 2.6.35 anyways, so I'm not the one going to do that unnecessary work.

ext4dev is easy enough to enable if you're able to compile the kernel though, since it's already in there, just not enabled by default.

do we know when we are moving to the newer kernel?
