It says ext2. Based on other messages, I look at
/sbin/mkinitrd. It looks to me that RedHat/Fedora are pretty dumb making stupid assumptions about the fs type instead of looking at the filesystem types that root has setup in fstab.
Well, if the initrd (which is a ramdisk with a filesystem on it) is ext2, you need ext2 in the kernel. It has nothing to do with the root filesystem type, really. Journalling on an initrd makes no sense, so ext2 is actually a sensible choice there.
