Title:
  fails to understand ext_attr feature

Status in “parted” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in “partman-basicfilesystems” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: parted

  Lucid alpha 2 live installer ("Try Ubuntu" then doubleclick on the
  "Install Ubuntu 10.04" icon) on a disk that already has a /boot and
  several other partitions from previous installs.

  I use manual partitioning because I want to re-use one of the existing root partitions.
   I choose a root partition, then set the existing /dev/sda1 filesystem as /boot, ext2 and click Next.

  I get a dialog that says:

  File system has an incompatible feature enabled.  Compatible features
  are has_journal, dir_index, filetype, sparse_super and large_file.
  Use tune2fs or debugfs to remove features.

  No hints about what the incompatible feature is (but apparently it's ext_attr).
  I'm fairly sure this ext2 partition was created with an earlier Ubuntu installer, probably Hardy, Intrepid or Jaunty.
