Filesystem has unsupported feature(s)

Hi Everybody!

I'm currently using RHEL3 with ext3 filesystems.  On boot, I am getting the message 'Filesystem has unsupported feature(s)' when the os tries to check the filesystems.  The filesystems that it is having trouble with are on 2 hard drives separate from the root fs.  I'm using e2fsprogs-1.32-15.3, which appears to be the latest version for rhel-3.

I have read about this error and it seems that the general status of the error is that the filesystems were created with a different os.  I'm pretty sure I created these filesystems with rhel3, but if I did not, then the only other that they could have been created with is Fedora Core 4. 

I can still mount the filesystems, so I just have to remove the entries from fstab and boot and mount them when the systems start, but I'd rather get to the bottom of this.

So...  my questions are:

1.  Is there a way to check when the fs was created and with what?
2.  Is there a way to update the fs so that it is compatible with e2fsprogs -- obviously, without creating it.

I appreciate any help. ; Thank you.
