+If you get the error `bad hypermeta data` when trying to mount an ext3
+partition from GNU/Linux, that is usually because the file system has not been
+unmounted cleanly (maybe GNU/Linux got suspended to disk) and the Hurd cannot
+mount it as ext2 without checking. Either boot back into GNU/Linux and unmount
+it or you can try to run `fsck.ext3` from GNU/Hurd directly.
