View Poll Results: is linux is better then Windows?
The ext2 filesystem is part of the kernel, so head over to kernel.org and pick up a copy of 2.6.15.4. When you untar the source, you will find ext2 in linux-2.6.15/fs/ext2/.
Linux is the kernel. A distro is an entire operating system.
<Distro> Linux is an operating system; Microsoft Windows is an operating system.
They are simply tools. Slackware Linux is my choice, and it does many things
more efficiently than Windows. However, it won't run Adobe InDesign or Photoshop

Use the best tool for the job.
