Uhm, while I fear I don't really understood what you are doing in your 
setup.. you know you need to run a cluster aware file system on any sort 
of shared block device -- be it DRBD, ENBD, iSCSI or something else and 
that ext2 is clearly not one of those? Look into OCFS or GFS. Besides 
that it's beyond me why anyone would like to use ext2 these days. If 
what you are after is a parallel file system, I'd recommend to look into 
GLusterFS with AFR translator.
