ext2 is the base of the journaling ext3 FS.
I would suggest you use TestDisk
<http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk> and see if you can recover
your filesystem.
The tool is powerful. I have been able to recover disk partitions and
the filesystems within when all other tools reported "no disk
partition" on the HDD.
Good luck.
