    One use I have for my CoLinux setup is sharing my dual-boot linux partitions to the windows host over samba. I just installed the latest ubuntu, and opted for ext4. Is there any way I can get ext4 support into the kernel? (I realize I could just change to a different filesystem, but i'd prefer to find a 'proper' solution).

    Thanks!

      No other solution. coLinux has no ext4 driver. The kernel 2.6.22 is to old for that. Minimal requirement is kernel 2.6.26 (see [1]) . We don't have it.
