FC3 SMP builds do NOT contain ext3 drivers in the build!!!!

Update.  

I changed /etc/fstab so that it uses ext2 exclusively instead of ext3 then built a new boot image and it works.  I'm about to attempt a combination to see if I can narrow down what is the issue.

did, same error.  So I'm woundering if there is a module that ext3 needs that is not included when building SMP.

Not surprising.  The initrd is created as part of the post install RPM
script so that it matches your hardware.  A better thing to try would be
to rebuild the initrd for the kernel version that isn't working and set
grub to use it.
