- It is supported just fine. On first reboot your fsck will notice that
- it is 4.1.1 and update it to handle the "special stuff" (oooh, secret
- magic, no doubt :-) that let's 4.1.2 know when a disk was umounted
- cleanly and doesn't need to be fsck'ed. In other words, it will
- become a 4.1.2 partition.
