I've converted ext2 to ext3 on my SuSE 7.1 box and my Debian (unstable)
box. Neither of which had any issues.

Please note, you cannot use kernel modules for ext3 if your root
filesystem is an ext3 filesystem. 

Just do a search on google, you need to create the journal with tune2fs,
then set the fsck frequency to zero.
