Colinux and ext4?

Question

linux

The task is to access ext4 partitions from windows.
The problem is that colinux uses a rather old kernel (2.6.26.8). There is an ext4dev module for it, but ... only file systems for which there is a test_fs mark are mounted. The mark is set easily - tune2fs -E test_fs /dev/*** and everything works - until the next linux start in which the FS is not mounted as a test one and the mark is automatically removed during fsck.
Yes, of course, you can simply mount the FS not through fstab, but with a script in which to do tune2fs first, but it looks like some kind of crutch. I would like a "correct" solution.

Answer 2

In the meantime, I found a solution that was lying right under my nose. It turns out that a week ago a devel version of colinux was released with kernel 2.6.33 in which ext4 has already been promoted to the rank of stable file systems.
