One can have an ext4 partition, but the /boot partition has to be ext2 or ext3 if I am not mistaken? I have such a setup that I have an ext4 partition, but I am not sure if the /boot partition is ext2 or ext3?
That's correct.
If the mention of "ext3 mbr" meant "/boot is ext3" then the relevant
info is: grub cannot (yet) boot from ext4. /boot must be a separate,
non-ext4, grub-supported filesystem. I'd go with ext3.
Thanks,

I want to thank everyone who responded. It is clear to me
now what is necessary to use an ext4 filesystem.
My failure was that I was using /boot that was ext4. I
could select it from the grub menu on the other disk, but
when it tried to start from there, it failed.
At least that is what I remember. It's been a while.
