Well, from bad experience: Reiser seems to have exactly to states: "Working" and "dead". As long as it's working it's very nice. But once you experience problems there's nothing between those two. We had several machines (fortunately no customer systems) just dying with no trace of the source of the problem (RAID5-SCSI- hardware without any faults). They just suddenly died with filesystem error. With all machines we had no luck rebuilding the filesystem. Just out of couriosity I contacted several Linux support company (including SuSE as one of the major supporers of Reiser and the very helpful guys at Bytec) but none could help but most did second our experience with Reiser. But as usual, YMMV. Cheers, Marcel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
