Just found this on redhat regarding a recent subject on the list:
(

The */tune2fs/* program can add a journal to an existing ext2 file
system. If the file system is already mounted while it is being
transitioned, the journal will be visible as the file *.journal* in the
*root* directory of the file system. If the file system is not mounted,
the journal will be hidden and will not appear in the file system. Just
run *tune2fs -j /dev/hda1* (or whatever device holds the file system you
are transitioning) and change *ext2* to *ext3* on the matching lines in
*/etc/fstab*.
