The new journal filesystems are a good thing, but I'm afraid that Reiser
doesn't have yet a good filesystem checker as e2fsck is; although is a
good filesystem.
I recommend you to use ext3 because of three reasons:
1. is a journal FS
2. You have e2fsck
3. You can go back to ext2 when you want without making backup
and reformat the partition. }:))
