I followed the guide "Converting an existing Ext3 file system to Ext4" (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ConvertFilesystemToExt4).
But after I updated fstab and rebooted, the root partition still is mounted as ext3. I only have two partitions on my disk: root and swap.
I dare not continue with step 2 of the guide, as it looks like the partition is mounted with ext4 driver.
Do you know what to do next? Or troubleshoot in any way?
