As of kernel 2.4.7, the ext3 patch is quite stable and performs well. Testing has been on x86 SMP. Please send any success or failure reports for other architectures to the ext3-users list. One outstanding problem is disk quotas. There are several known sources of deadlocks in the 2.4.7 quota code, and ext3 adds one more source. The quota code in the -ac kernels is very different, and once that gets merged into Linus' tree we shall continue development and testing of quota code for ext3. This is not to say that ext3+quotas crashes all over the place - but if you push the filesystem hard enough for long enough, the code will lock up and you will need to reboot to reestablish operation on the affected filesystem. We only test quota code against the -ac kernels - this is supported and works well. ======================================================================== This information seems to be rather old, but maybe quota doesn't work until now with ext3. Don't know. Regards, Elmar -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
