I have ext2 and ext3 mounts on these machines as well, and they
don't throw any errors.

What is the output that is causing the failure? When someone
asks you to describe the error that is occurring, please quote the
/exact error/ that is occurring - describing it via paraphrasing
does not tell anything useful about the error as I cannot correlate
that description to the code that is throwing it.
