Run 'mount'. If it's ext4, the filesystem will be listed as
'ext4dev'.

Unless you did custom partitioning and told it to use ext4, you got the
standard setup - which means ext3.

Gparted does not show the filesystem types? If it does, how do I run it?
I tried LiveCD, but it does not show what filesystem type it is. fdisk shows:
[root@riohigh ~]# fdisk -l
fdisk shows the *partition* type. partitions can contain any filesystem
type that Linux knows about. So this won't help.
